Bug Description
The previous default configuration for the package written into /etc/inetd.conf was:
amanda dgram udp wait backup /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/lib/
This will be overwritten with the new default (the following) when upgrading from an existing installation of the package to the newest version:
amanda stream tcp nowait backup /usr/lib/
This breaks existing installations and causes backups to fail.
Desired behavior:
If an old configuration is found when installing the package, ask the user what to do OR keep the existing configuration.
