Fedora Users — Re: bacula server

I think command you should run is

rpmbuild --rebuild --define 'fc3 1' --define 'build_mysql 1' --define 'build_mysql4 1' bacula.spec
(The spec file is found in SPECS directory)

First off thanks to all for your tremendous help without it i would have probably given up on bacula by now. Lets just say it is a probably a good thing the fedora box is remote so i cannot physically get to it. Got C++ installed managed to get the extras working and seem to have the rpmbuildtree in my home directory. Looks like i am on to a whole new set of problems now, but this is great i think this means progress right?

rpmbuild]$ ls

[rmvg@shoemasters rpmbuild]$ rpmbuild --rebuild --define 'fc3 1' --define 'build_mysql 1' --define 'build_mysql4 1' bacula-1.38.5-4.src.rpm

To install C++ compiler:
# yum install gcc-c++

To install rpmbuild:
# yum install rpm-build

To set up your environment to build RPM packages as a regular user:
http://www.city-fan.org/tips/CreateRPMBuildEnvironment
(note that the above instructions assume you have the Fedora Extras
repository enabled - see
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/UsingExtras for configuring it on
FC3)

To build the package:
$ rpmbuild --rebuild \
--define 'fc3 1' \
--define 'build_mysql 1' \
--define 'build_mysql4 1' \
bacula-1.38.5-4.src.rpm

(replace bacula-1.38.5-4.src.rpm with the full filename of whatever
src.rpm you downloaded).

If you get messa! ges about some packages being needed, use yum to install
those packages as for gcc-c++ and rpm-build above, then retry the
rpmbuild command.

P.S. Please don't top-post on this mailing list.

Paul.
