Thanks again mostly u/we got it to work so far. However it is asking for a pile of dependancies. I know give a guy an inch and he will try to take a mile or km here in Canada. Is there a way to install without any gui stuff or mabey i am wrong mabey there is no gui stuff. Some of the dependancies for those dependancies are X11 related. I do not have any X11 stuff on this box it has no xwindows/gnome system and is minimum install Command prompt only. So before i go ahead and make a big mess of my faily clean fedora box do i really need all these or is there a way to turn some of them off. Thanks again and sorry about top post i think my clock was messed up not sure how it happend but should be fixed now. ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul Howarth <paul@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: For users of Fedora Core releases <fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, March 14, 2006 1:10:02 AM GMT-0700 Subject: Re: bacula server On Mon, 2006-03-13 at 17:11 -0700, RYAN M. vAN GINNEKEN wrote: > 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 > bacula-1.38.5-4.src.rpm BUILD RPMS SOURCES SPECS SRPMS > [rmvg@shoemasters rpmbuild]$ rpmbuild --rebuild --define 'fc3 1' --define 'build_mysql 1' --define 'build_mysql4 1' bacula-1.38.5-4.src.rpm > Installing bacula-1.38.5-4.src.rpm > warning: user sbarn does not exist - using root > warning: user sbarn does not exist - using root > warning: user sbarn does not exist - using root > warning: user sbarn does not exist - using root > warning: user sbarn does not exist - using root > warning: user sbarn does not exist - using root > error: You must specify a platform.
