Hit this exact problem in Almalinux 8.5 with a couple of test machines (rpm from default repo/appstream):

ambind is not included in client packages for 3.5.1, therefore the client will error trying to launch amrecover  - is this across the board for all distros/packages?

The solution as above is then to install the amanda-server package.

(doesn't seem to be the case for Zmanda community RHEL7 rpm - amanda-backup_client.x86_64    3.5.1-1.rhel7)
