Hello,
My first post to Bacula list, hope it helps.
Some distro.'s will easily show you the ./configure line they use. E.g. here
is for slack builds for bacula. Others like Red Hat you can view the SPEC file.
http://slackbuilds.org/result/?search=bacula&sv=
http://slackbuilds.org/slackbuilds/13.0/system/bacula/bacula.SlackBuild
If all you need is the configuration then maybe you can use the one they have
used on that distro.?
SLKCFLAGS="-O2 -fPIC"
LIBDIRSUFFIX="64"
CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS" \
CXXFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS" \
./configure \
--prefix=/usr \
--libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
--sysconfdir=/etc/bacula \
--localstatedir=/var \
--mandir=/usr/man \
--docdir=/usr/doc/$PRGNAM-$VERSION \
--with-scriptdir=/usr/bin \
--with-working-dir=/var/bacula/working \
--with-dump-email=$EMAIL \
--with-job-email=$EMAIL \
--with-smtp-host=$SMTPHOST \
--disable-conio \
--with-mysql \
--build=$ARCH-slackware-linux
make
make install
