I was trying to install bacula on my server and ran into some
dependency problems that didn't seem to fit:
postgres 8.1
sqlite.
My intention was to install this and use my existing postgres 8.2
database since that already has all the settings tuned for
performance and reliability.
The method for doing this was based on the -unstable branch for
installation.
But I can't seem to get around installation of postgresql-client-8.1
and sqllite3.
Is there something I can do besides the somewhat obvious alternatives
of installing software I don't want or waiting?
You could try forcing things, but it's not very recomended... if
there's
a dependency it must be for a good reason.
Generally yes, but not in the case of the postgres database. I think
someone took the dependencies thing too far. Once you get the libpq
library, you've covered everything as a client to the database.
Bacula has the libpq library. Unless the client also requires
sqlite, there's no reason for it if you've picked postgresql as the
database to use for the backup data.
