Hello,
there's some redundant code on the configure script in Bacula 5.2.2.
Whn passing "--with-hostname=RESNAME" to configure, the parameter is
ignored and always gets to the output of "uname -n" on the machine
that is currently building Bacula.
Later parts of the configure script correctly set the hostname to
"uname -n" if no hostname is passed on the command line, but that is
overwritten by the redundant code anyway.
Attached is the patch which removes the redundant code in configure
and just leaves the logic already in place for determining or
overriding the hostname.
The already functioning logic is at line 23173 of the unpatched
"configure" script.
