I'm running Amanda on a woody system, all runs fine.

Take a look in your amanda.conf (/etc/amanda/DailySet1/amanda.conf),
that has a dumpuser line. On mine it is backup, the same as the user set
in /etc/inetd.conf. If you run the backup as a different user you need
to fix up the permissions under /var/lib/amanda/DailySet1 to get
amrecover working.
What does amcheck show?

Have you got the readline development library installed,
libreadline4-dev or libreadline5-dev?
Best of luck.
