I recieved the following warnings after adding --with-maxtapeblocksize to my 
amanda.spec file and issuing the rpmbuild -ba amanda.spec command:

I noticed in newer RPM's that amandabackup is the default dumpuser and disk the 
default group not amanda user and backup group.  Should I also add --with-user 
amandabackup and --with-group disk to the amanda.spec file and re-issue the 
rpmbuild -ba command? What is current and future direction for the default user 
and group in zmanda rpms.
