I'll take that up with Rahul.  If that's the case, I am not allergic to 
building from the tarball, some of the stuff I run here straight from the 
tarball, like the kernel is 2.6.30-rc7, and amanda is from yesterdays snapshot 
of what will become amanda-2.6.2 in a few months.

However, I have no clue if I have a problem because I can't get it to run at 
all.

[root at coyote amanda]# service ups start
Starting UPS driver controller:                            [FAILED]
Starting upsd:                                             [  OK  ]
Starting UPS monitor (master):                             [FAILED]

So I need help from square one.  Would a tarball build be preferable in this 
case?

Those I have been looking at, intermittently.  Too many trees, can't see the 
forest. :)
