When defining DLE like this:

hostname diskname [ diskdevice ] {
  normal
  holdingdisk never
} [ spindle [ interface ] ]

Is it possible to use the 'exclude' or 'include' directive inside of
the disktype definition? I have tried this multiple ways and cannot
seem to get it to work. My latest attempt was to use an exclude file.

foobar.foo.bar "/home/user" {
  comp-tar
  exclude list ".amanda.exclude"
}

Here is .amanda.exclude (the amandauser is a member of the backup
group which has read permissions to .amanda.exclude):

$ cat .amanda.exclude
./Failed\ Raid\ 5\ Images
./RAID\ Image\ Backup
./Downloads

amcheck seems to like this, however amdump dumps the entire /home/user
without the exclusions.

What am I doing wrong here?

Kind Regards,
Chris
