Hi, If you can't reproduce this bug, it probably means you have installed a self-built version of amanda-common.
When amanda-common is built on a system with procps installed autoconf does the right thing with the variable $PS in Constants.pm: [~/src/amanda-2.6.1p2]$ grep "\$PS =" `find . -name Constants.\*` ./perl/Amanda/Constants.pm.in:$PS = "@PS@"; ./perl/Amanda/Constants.pm:$PS = "/bin/ps"; Since procps is not listed as a build-dependency, it will not be installed on the autobuilders and autoconf will not expand @PS@, leading to the problem reported by Wolfgang Weisselberg. To resolve the bug one must add procps to the build-dependencies of amanda and to the dependencies of amanda-common since /usr/lib/amanda/perl/Amanda/Process.pm in amanda-common uses /bin/ps in procps. Kind regards, Arnold Metselaar
