Building the current Fedora-Specfile on EL5 does require tweaking. > AFAIK, 3.0.3 binaries are not available for > RHEL-etc, but 3.0.3 srpm contains valid spec for RHEL/CentOS. > It takes only a single rpmbuild command. Been there, done that: Well. If you take a closer look at the specfile you'll see that it's a rather big mess with support vor various rpm-based distros. The Fedora-Specfile is close to what a RHEL-Spec would look like if bacula was included in RHEL (which I hope it'll be in the future). Additionally being able to yum install is much more convenient than installing a build-environment on some machine to build packages. > Btw, 3.0.2 binary rpms are available also for RHEL.

According to bacula.org "Version 3.0.3 is primarily a important bug fix update to version 3.0.2.". Which sounds like that is what I want to run if I want bacula 3 (even without looking at the fixed bugs and crashes). -- sven === jabber/xmpp: s...@lankes.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list Bacula-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
