I suggest to mark stable app-backup/amanda-2.5.2_p1-r5 or 2.6.0_p2-r4. FYI: CentOS 5 amanda-2.5.0p2-4 Debian stable amanda-2.5.2p1-4 openSUSE 11.1 amanda-2.5.2.1-186.58 Gentoo amanda-2.4.5 :(
I agree ... they could both be marked stable. Robin?
Time to jump to 2.6 I agree. 2.5.2 caused lots of autoconf hell. arches, please compile-test and mark as stable. target keywords: amd64 ppc ppc64 sparc x86
I even use 2.6.1 here since it was released by the amanda team. But 2.6.1 itself has some known issues (already solved in trunk there) so a late 2.6.0 should get stable and with 2.6.1 we should wait for a 2.6.1p1 or something from amanda.org
On sparc at least, installation is not complete because of: ================== >>> /var/spool/amanda/.amandahosts -> /etc/amanda/amandahosts * Creating inital Amanda file (dumpdates) in /etc * Creating inital Amanda file (amandates) in /var/spool/amanda/amanda touch: cannot touch `///var/spool/amanda/amanda/amandates': No such file or directory chown: cannot access `///var/spool/amanda/amanda/amandates': No such file or directory chmod: cannot access `///var/spool/amanda/amanda/amandates': No such file or directory * Checking setuid permissions * You should configure Amanda in /etc/amanda now. ========================== I don't know if it forgets to create /var/spool/amanda/amanda, or if this should be just /var/spool.amanda. Please advise.
fmccor: only a cosmetic error, it creates the directory and file fine during the first run anyway. However, I've fixed it in -r4 anyway, it already had the file fine if you migrated from an earlier version, just not if you did a fresh install.
