For the FreeBSD port, these files are all in the FreeBSD source tree. I don't think it makes sense to put it into the Bacula source tree because the files require the infrastructure provided by the FreeBSD ports tree. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/sysutils/bacula-server/ FYI: The above files allow a FreeBSD user to download, configure, patch, and install Bacula by issuing "make install". This would be the equivalent of installing from source and is referred to as "the port" or installing "the port". To create a binary package one only need issue the command "make package". After installation, one cannot differentiate something installed from a port from something installing from the package. They both wind up in the package FreeBSD management system. > For your information, here is the current list of packagers.

I also maintain the development port of Bacula. That means we have four ports: http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/bacula-server/ http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/bacula-client/ http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/bacula-server-devel/ http://www.freshports.org/sysutils/bacula-client-devel/ > Keith Conger (MacOSX) > Thomas Cameron (Gentoo) > Luca Berra (Mandrivia) > Eamon Brosnan (MacOSX) > Geert Hendrickx (NetBSD) -- Dan Langille : Software Developer looking for work my resume: http://www.freebsddiary.org/dan_langille.php ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
