[gentoo-user] Veritas Backup Exec 10d

[gentoo-user] Veritas Backup Exec 10d

[Mal Herring]

Hi Gentoo User,
Recently brought Backup Exec 10d but before doing so spoke with a sales
person who confirmed with Veritas that the Linux/Unix agent would
work...

After finding that it doesn't and checking the Veritas site
http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/264484.htm it would seem that it
supports a lot of other Linux OS's so I am sure I could fudge it to work
on Gentoo...

So it seems to need RPM support so I emerged RPM, it then fails on some
needed - see below:

So, My question is - Can I install the above and would this work or am I
on a loosing battle here...

I guess I would just download the RPM's for the above and install -
right ?

Anyone else using BEv10d and has had the same problem ?

Thanks

Mal

okay, first verify that those programs are on the box.  if they ALL are, rpm 
--nodeps rpmname will cause it to ignore them.  the problem is your rpm 
database does not reflect the installed packages, because they weren't 
installed with rpm... maybe if someone has a way to import the information 
portage maintains into the rpm db......?

Thanks for this but how would I check each requirement ?  My world file
is:

sys-apps/slocate
net-ftp/ncftp
sys-kernel/gentoo-sources
net-ftp/gftp
app-arch/rpm
dev-util/strace
app-editors/vim
net-dns/bind-tools
sys-process/vixie-cron
app-arch/zip
media-gfx/imagemagick
www-client/lynx
sys-boot/grub
sys-kernel/linux-headers
sys-fs/reiserfsprogs
net-fs/samba
www-client/links
app-admin/syslog-ng
app-editors/nano
app-editors/nedit
sys-libs/glibc

But aren't a lot of what it needs possibly handled by glibc ?

I'd install lib-compat and see how much of your list that gets you. Most 
binary packages require lib-compat on just about any Linux distro.

Assuming you can get all the libs you need I'd force the install rather 
than try to inject everything you need into your rpm db.

Should I emerge this or get the RPM and when you say force it - you mean
using the --nodeps option on RPM ?

Hi Gentoo-User,
Managed to get the agent installed on most of the boxes however on two
(One Gentoo, Other Red-Hat) it's failing...  And I cant see in the logs
why...

Anyone got experience debugging these things ?
