[gentoo-user] How to Install Bacula Client Using Portage?

[gentoo-user] How to Install Bacula Client Using Portage?

[Drew Tomlinson]

I'm new to both Gentoo and Linux so I apologize if this is a stupid 
question.  I've used bacula on FreeBSD and would like to put the bacula 
client on a Gentoo box I have running MythTV.  Is there a way to build 
the client only using portage?  Or do I have to build the whole thing 
and then only start the client?  I've read the handbook on gentoo.org 
but can not seem to figure this one out.

Thanks,

Drew

Hi Drew,
   emerge -s bacula shows only one emerge candidate. Looks liek you
have to build them both through portage.

Hope this helps,
Mark

'emerge bacula' installs the whole thing.

What I did was to comment out the SD and DIR daemons in the
/etc/init.d/bacula startup script (they're all started separately).

It would be nice if there were at least a separate start-up script for the
file daemon...

[gentoo-user] alsa issues

[creighto]

trouble loading snd-intel8x0 for soundcard

modprobe snd-intel8x0 results in ...

FATAL: Module snd_intel8x0 not found

yet it exists as...

/lib/modules/2.6.12-gentoo-r4/kernel/sound/pci/snd-intel8x0.ko

Could this be a bad alias in modprobe.conf?  If so how do I fix it?

[Roy Wright]

You are probably building it into the kernel and trying to load it
as an alsa module.  Do one or the other.

I.e., if you want it built into the kernel, then remove it from
/etc/modules.d/alsa
#options snd-intel8x0 index=0

If you want it as a module, then set CONFIG=SND_INTEL8X0=M in
/usr/src/linux/.config (Device Drivers, Sound, Advanced Linux Sound
Architecture, PCI devices, <M> Intel/SiS/nVidia/AMD/ALi AC97
Controller)

HTH,
Roy

Thank you and Andrew MacKenzie for your replies.  I found this site on 
the web:

http://www.gentoo-portage.com/app-backup/bacula

It seems to me that the newer 1.36.3 & -r1 ebuilds include a USE flag 
that will build just the client.  I've added the appropriate "~x86" flag 
in /etc/portage/package.keywords to get version 1.36.3-r1.  Then I added 
the following line in /etc/portage/package.use:

app-backup/bacula client-only

This seems to do it as emerge -pv confirms portage sees the flag:

app-backup/bacula-1.36.3-r1  +X +client-only -gnome +mysql +ncurses 
-postgres +readline -sqlite -static +tcpd

Thanks again!

Drew

It's in portage, so a simple `emerge bacula` as root should build and
install it on your machine (including any needed dependencies). If you
want the client only, you can add "client-only" to your USE flags. It
has a few other USE flags to do various things (MySQL and PostgreSQL
support, for example). A simple `emerge --pretend --verbose bacula`
should show you these. 

I've no experience with MythTV or Bacula though so I can't advise
further on the matter...

Are you sure that you're currently running kernel 2.6.12-gentoo-r4? Is
your /usr/src/linux symlink correct?

Yes, I am.


I feel a little silly about my post, as I forgot to unmute my alsamixer
settings.
