Description unlord 2005-01-19 11:28:11 UTC
Here is an ebuild for the free version of the commercial backup utility Arkeia.  It contains a gentoo compatible init script, and places all the files under the directory /opt/arkeia.  The only ugly thing is that the binarys have hardcoded the location /etc/opt/arkeia/ARKEIA_DIR as where they look for the path to the installation directory.

I am not sure, but it looks like this ebuild might need to be modified to contain the arkeia license.  The aiinfo.lst file in arkeia-light-5.2.24.tar.gz is the only place it mentions that this software is free:

  APPINFO "Network backup solution, free for 3 machines"

This should work just fine out of the box for most uses.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 7 Robin Johnson archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2005-07-27 10:18:58 UTC
Arnaud, here are some comments about the ebuild for you to look at.
KEYWORDS="~x86"
this should be '-* ~x86' as it's a binary package.

"uncompress < arktar.z | tar -xvf -"
This should work too: unpack arktar.z

"hostname > ${D}/opt/arkeia/arkeiad/admin.cfg"
This is really nasty for building binary packages that will be used on multiple 
machines. Can we move the file to /etc, and have it created in the pkg_config 
phase instead? Anything that is configuration changed by the user should be 
somewhere in /etc/, or alternatively added to CONFIG_PROTECT (discouraged, 
moving to /etc/ is better).

/etc/opt/arkeia/
any specific reason for /etc/opt/arkeia/ instead of /etc/arkeia/ ?

cp -a ${FILESDIR}/arkeia ${D}/etc/init.d/
use 'doinitd' instead.

Comment 8 Ingo Kemper 2005-09-18 15:55:47 UTC
Works perfectly on AMD64 (renamed to arkeia-light-5.2.28.ebuild, keyword ~amd64
added), thanks.

arkeia-light-5.2.28.ebuild

Here is a newer version of the ebuild.	This takes into account some of the
changes suggested here, specifically:

- bumped the version
- changed the keywords to "-* ~x86 ~amd64"
- using doinitd to install 'arkeia' script
- using dobin to install 'arkc' and 'xarkeia' scripts

I am still waiting to hear back from Arnaud regarding the license he attached. 
I have skimmed it and didn't see any language in it that explicitly allowed the
product to be used for free under linux.

Other suggestions that were discarded:

- could not use "unpack arktar.z" since unpack looks in /usr/portage/distfiles
- could not move configuration files to /etc/arkeia since the /etc/opt/arkeia
path is hard coded (perhaps this could be fixed upstream by Arkeia folks)

This file set environment variables to protect Arkeia configuration files from
being overwritten by an upgrade.

Configurations files are now in /etc/arkeia
The arkeia database is moved to /var/lib/arkeia
Comment 12 Lisa Seelye (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-05 14:45:39 UTC
From HOMEPAGE http://www.arkeia.org/arkeialight.html:

Arkeia Light is no longer available and has been replaced by Arkeia Smart Backup. 

Arkeia Smart Backup has no client number limit and supports a broader range of backed up clients, including Linux, all versions of Windows, xBSDs, Mac OS X and Novell Netware. It allows the option of backup to a single tape drive as well as support for tape autoloaders and backup to disk through Arkeia's embedded Virtual tape Library. 

Arkeia Smart Backup is free up to 50 GB of data without purchasing a volume license and there is no expiration date..
