Well, for some reason, $orig_size ends up set to zero which causes Amanda::Report::Human::divzero_col to return a string (-- )rather than a numeric. Never having read this code before and so shooting from the hip, I'd say the code does not handle the case where orig_kb == 0. Since divzero_col "could" return a non-numeric value, at the very least, the conditionals at lines 1289 and 1312 in Human.pm should be modified to take in to count the possibility of a non-numeric value in their test. However, there looks to have been substantial changes to other parts of the code, so the true problem may lie farther back up the food chain. Kind Regards, Chris
