I guess this was missed when converting from the legacy package to our new buildsystem:
  http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/gar/browser/csw/mgar/pkg/amanda/trunk/Makefile
(See --disable-installperms) This needs to be converted to permission settings in
the package.

This is a problem with the package. Would you please open a bug report?
