Bacula-1.32f RPM Release Notes 13 March 2004 D. Scott Barninger <barninger at fairfieldcomputers dot com> Release 1.32f-5 This release incorporates a number of changes over 1.32f-4. - Added tests in the post-install routines to check for an existing bacula catalog database. The rpm will now only attempt to create the database where none exists. Previously this would error out harmlessly but the error messages perhaps caused some anxiety. - Fixed the broken (in rpm package only) create_sqlite_database script and added it to the post-install execution for the sqlite package. - Added the console program to the client package. - Added a new gconsole package. This is an add-on package to the client package. The intent is that for client only installs you can now have the gnome-console if desired. - Added a number of good cleanup suggestions from Michael K. Johnson including a much nicer post-install routine for those who do 'chkconfig bacula-* off' before upgrading. - Added a brief description of how to build rescue disks to the description of the rescue package. Do 'rpm -qi bacula-rescue' to see it. - Added an additional clean of the build root to the beginning of the install section. For those who rebuild the SRPM this means you no longer have to manually delete the build root after a failed build. - The conflict between bacula/README and bacula/doc/README that was causing the rpm package build to break on some platforms has been corrected in CVS by renaming one of the files. That change did not make it into the 1.32f-5 tarball which was released. I have corrected that in the tarball encapsulated in the SRPM so that it will build on SuSE and Fedora Core. Please refer to the release notes and changelog in the tarball for complete information on all changes. See http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=222425 ****************** * Platform Notes * ****************** This release represents the first official SuSE package support. RPM packages for SuSE-9.0 are provided. The init scripts are working but do not visibly return process status. That has been corrected in CVS and will be included in the next release. Anyone wishing to edit the installed scripts please refer to the CVS copies for guidance. http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/bacula/bacula/platforms/suse/ *************************************************************** * This rpm release contains some important changes from 1.32d * *************************************************************** The platform designator (rh7, rh8, rh9) has been REMOVED from the package names as this was creating some problems. Hence, you CAN NOT upgrade existing 1.32d installations with these packages (rpm -U). To upgrade: 1. Backup your configuration files (/etc/bacula/*.conf) "just to be safe." 2. Uninstall the old bacula package, ie. rpm -e bacula-mysql-rh9 If you are not sure what package name is installed do rpm -qa | grep bacula 3. Install the new package with rpm -i
