Hello, The source rpm package has been released as well as the binary packages which I currently support (see below). I expect that Felix and Patti will be releasing their platform packages sometime this weekend as well. If anyone is interested in publishing for platforms not mentioned at the bottom of this post, please examine the instructions in the directory platforms/contrib-rpm in the source tarball and contact me.
It should be noted with this release that I am discontinuing publishing packages for Mandriva as Luca Berra has them available in Mandriva contrib. ---------------------------- Bacula-2.0 RPM Release Notes 06 January 2007 D. Scott Barninger <barninger at fairfieldcomputers dot com> Release 2.0.0-1 This release incorporates a number of significant changes since 1.38. These release notes refer to the rpm packaging only. Please refer to the release notes and changelog in the tarball or on sourceforge for complete information on all changes. ***************************** * SQLite patches re-enabled * ***************************** Patches for the sqlite scripts have been updated and re-enabled for correct paths for rpm installation. ******************************************* * Gnome console dropped on some platforms * ******************************************* The gconsole package has been dropped on older gnome platforms (gtk+ < 2.4). Changes in the gnome api and code produced by Glade no longer build. gconsole is now not built on the following platforms: rh7, rh8, rh9, rhel3 (and clones), fc1, mdk, su9 ******************************** * Third party packager support * ******************************** A new build tag added to support third party packagers to replace the information in the Packager: tag in the rpm. Invoking --define "contrib_packager Your Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" will substitute your packager identification. Users interested in building packages for platforms not normally published should examine the platforms/contrib-rpm directory in the source code. ******************************* * Option to build client only * ******************************* A build define to build the client rpm package only added. This turns off all database builds, gnome console and wxconsole. --define "build_client_only 1" ************************ * Python support added * ************************ Support for compiling with python scripting support added. This is off by default but can be enabled with: --define "build_python 1" Released binary packages are built with python support. ******************* * Database update * ******************* The 2.0 release requires an update to the bacula database structure from version 9 to version 10. A pre-install routine has been added to check for databases older than 9. In that event the install will exit with an error message indicating that the database must be updated to version 9 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 9 database is detected a post-install routine will update the database after creating a backup file in the bacula working directory. ****************** * Platform Notes * ****************** 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" --define "build_fc5 1" To build on Fedora 6 use build_fc5 currently. The next release should include updated dependencies for fc6. # Whitebox Enterprise build --define "build_wb3 1" # RedHat Enterprise builds --define "build_rhel3 1" --define "build_rhel4 1" # CentOS build --define "build_centos3 1" --define "build_centos4 1" # SuSE build --define "build_su9 1" --define "build_su10 1" # Mandrake 10.x build --define "build_mdk 1" # Mandriva build --define "build_mdv 1" ************************** * Database build options * ************************** Database support (must select one or build client only) MySQL support: --define "build_mysql 1" # OR if using mysql 4.x define this # currently: Mandrake 10.x, SuSE 9.x & 10.0, RHEL4, fc4 --define "build_mysql4 1" # OR if using mysql 5.x define this # currently: SuSE 10.1, fc5 --define "build_mysql5 1" PostgreSQL support: --define "build_postgresql 1" Sqlite support: --define "build_sqlite 1" *********************** * Other build options * *********************** Supress build of Gnome Console: --define "nobuild_gconsole 1" Enable X86-64 support --define "build_x86_64 1" This build switch remains but should no longer be necessary. The configure script was adjusted in the 1.39 development series to correctly detect the location of 64 bit libraries. Enable wxconsole: --define "build_wxconsole 1" Enable python support: --define "build_python 1" Build the client package only: --define "build_client_only 1" ********************************** * Current binary package support * ********************************** D.
