Description Steve-o 2004-09-28 12:11:04 UTC
In order to use Amanda with AFS an extra package of tools is required to be downloaded.  The provided link includes the tarball.

However Amanda 2.4.4p2 already includes this patch, so only the new binaries are required.

Patch for amanda-afs to build

Fixes typos and adds extra link library to resolve "__res_search" and
"__dn_expand".

I've got absolutely no experience with AFS, so if you'd care to attach a patch for the latest amanda ebuild adding AFS support, I'll integrate that.

Missed "--gnu-tar" flag set by default.
Comment 9 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2006-06-06 18:55:31 UTC
Is this still relevant given the new 2.5 major release from upstream?
Comment 10 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2007-04-10 10:36:22 UTC
no response about porting this to 2.5 series.
Closing as UPSTREAM, please take it to them instead.
