hola! I packaged the latest version of Bacula, so I wish to publish it, but there's already an older package in AUR that I can't replace. Could you help me? thanks

Alright, seems this PKGBUILD was uploaded almost 2 years ago and never touched again. I have orphaned it, please adopt it before uploading your own PKGBUILD. -- Callan 'wizzomafizzo' Barrett

Thank you for your attempt to bring bacula packge up-to-date. I'm installing it at the moment, but see that it has mysql deps. Will it be possible to remove mysql dep and just inform user to install some database back-end 'cause Bacula can use either MySQL, PostgreSQL or even SQLite, although, I agree, configuring Bacula with different back-ends involve some extra hacking?

I'm not a TU nor a developer, but: Is is not the better way that all different SQL-Server have a "sql-server" in provides field and packages like bacula only depend on this? This is IMHO the way that: man PKGBUILD show for such situations.

No, it's no possible, because bacula must have a database library in build time. IMHO the KISS solution is write 3 different PKGBUILD.. ex: 'bacula' packet have a _standard_ depend db: mysql, 'bacula-sqlite' have sqlite db etc.. Another important question is the PKGBUILD of the various clients: bconsole (text), bat(qt4+qwt), gconsole(gnome/gtk) and wxconsole(wxWindget) I try to write PKGBUILD for various db backend and for all clients .. Have patience it's my first AUR packet ;) (ehm.. sorry for my english! )

Remember that we have library-only packages for mysql and postgresql, so you can save yourself the work for splitting these things up. Depending on postgresql and mysql itself is not-done, as you should have the choice to run the database on a different host.
