Maybe wire-test could be an OMAGIC executable. - /etc/init.d/amd does not accept the start/stop arguments (at least not from the command line). This is caused by the use of /etc/init.d/functions (it seems to destroy the $1 argument). Solution: save $1 to a new variable before calling /etc/init.d/functions and use the new variable for the case statement. - amd manpage mentions automounter(8) which does not exist - I can't get it working with the -r option (/etc/init.d/amd). After removing the -r option it works for me. - amd needs an entry (amd 300019 amq) in the /etc/rpc file. The next netbase version will have such an entry.

Your message didn't have a Package: line at the start (in the pseudo-header following the real mail header), or didn't have a psuedo-header at all. This makes it much harder for us to categorise and deal with your problem report; please ensure that you say which package(s) and version(s) the problem is with next time. Some time in the future the problem reports system may start rejecting such messages.
