Bacula-1.38 RPM Release Notes 21 Jan 2006 D. Scott Barninger <barninger at fairfieldcomputers dot com>
Release 1.38.5-2 This release incorporates a number of significant changes. These release notes refer to the rpm packaging only. Please refer to the release notes and changelog in the tarball for complete information on all changes or at http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php? release_id=386633&group_id=50727 **************** * Known Issues * **************** 1. The fc4 build currently uses fc3 dependancies. 2. Specific file permissions are applied in the packaging process - this needs to be removed. 3. Mandrake currently will not build. ******************* * Database update * ******************* The 1.38 release requires an update to the bacula database structure from version 8 to version 9. A pre-install routine has been added to check for databases older than 8. In that event the install will exit with an error message indicating that the database must be updated to version 8 before installing this upgrade. Scripts for updating older database formats are available for download in the bacula-updatedb rpm package. In the event a version 8 database is detected a post-install routine will update the database after creating a backup file in the bacula working directory. ************************* * Rescue package change * ************************* The cdrom rescue scripts are now included in the 3 server and client packages and the bacula-rescue package is obsoleted. You should uninstall bacula-rescue if installed before upgrading. ****************** * Platform Notes * ****************** RedHat 7.x gconsole package is eliminated with this release due to the elimination of support for gnome 1. The spec file currently supports building on the following platforms: # RedHat builds --define "build_rh7 1" --define "build_rh8 1" --define "build_rh9 1" # Fedora Core build --define "build_fc1 1" --define "build_fc3 1" --define "build_fc4 1" # Whitebox Enterprise build --define "build_wb3 1" # RedHat Enterprise builds --define "build_rhel3 1" --define "build_rhel4 1" # CentOS build --define "build_centos4 1" # SuSE build --define "build_su9 1" # Mandrake build --define "build_mdk 1" MySQL support: --define "build_mysql 1" # OR if using mysql 4.x define this # currently: Mandrake 10.x, SuSE 9.x, RHEL4, fc4 --define "build_mysql4 1" PostgreSQL support: --define "build_postgresql 1" Sqlite support: --define "build_sqlite 1" ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
