Re: bacula server

[RYAN M. vAN GINNEKEN]

Thanks again mostly u/we got it to work so far.  However it is asking for a pile of
dependancies.  I know give a guy an inch and he will try to take a mile or km here in
Canada.  Is there a way to install without any gui stuff or mabey i am wrong mabey there
is no gui stuff.  Some of the dependancies for those dependancies are X11 related.  

I do not have any X11 stuff on this box it has no xwindows/gnome system and is minimum
install Command prompt only.  So before i go ahead and make a big mess of my faily clean
fedora box do i really need all these or is there a way to turn some of them off. 

Thanks again and sorry about top post i think my clock was messed up not sure how it
happend but should be fixed now.

We got the defines wrong. Try this:

$ rpmbuild --rebuild \
	--define 'build_fc3 1' \
	--define 'build_mysql4 1' \
	bacula-1.38.5-4.src.rpm

You can use "yum localinstall some.rom some.other.rpm" to install rpms
with their dependencies (you might have to set gpgcheck=0
in /etc/yum.conf before you do this, and change it back to 1 again
afterwards, since the packages you've just built won't be signed).

Don't try installing the -gconsole subpackage. In fact, do an "rpm -qip"
on each rpm package and see if it's something you want to install. Only
install the bits you need.

Uh? Top-posting is nothing to do with clock settings, and you're still
doing it...

perhaps then bacula isn't the right package for your needs as some of
the tools are GUI.

Perhaps you want to use something like amanda which is already in the
packaging, fully cli and very effective.

I use bacula at home without the GUI; gconsole isn't much more than a 
terminal emulator sat on top of bconsole anyway, isn't it?

yeah - I played with it - it just doesn't seem worth it to install X and
a bunch of packages if that is necessary to get it installed. On the one
system that I built, I already had X and so that didn't represent a
block for me.

I do like amanda though.
