Doesn't installing Amanda from /usr/ports/misc/amanda24 work for you?
The recommended way to install software on a FreeBSD system is using
the ports collection.
The port of Amanda is almost up to date wr/t Amanda development - i.e.
it fetches and installs Amanda 2.4.2. It should install Amanda 2.4.2p1
just fine, just:
cd /usr/ports/misc/amanda24
vi Makefile # change 2.4.2 to 2.4.2p1
rm distinfo
make makesum
make install
HTH,
Patrick
