Bug#289838: Creating databases for the bacula-director
Joerg Friedrich wrote: Hi, just a hint, maybe I have the time to look deeper into it at the weekend. Don't reinvent the wheel when creating databases in postinst, resp. removing them on purge. Use the wwwconfig-common framework. No, that is not an option right now: - wwwconfig-common is *deprecated* for DB-related config - we are too close to a release The package name might be misleading the package supports additionally to manipulating the apache and php config also creating and removing of database, user... for mysql and postgres. Yes, I know. That is why is proposed a migration to *dbconfig-common* [which was designed precisely for this purpose] long ago. These packages have rdepends on wwwconfig-common. most of them just use it for configuring apache and php, but some of them to create databases and db users. Esp. horde2 is a very good one. Well, those packages will start receiving RC bugs to get them migrated to wwwconfig-common + dbconfig-common (or just one of them, as appropiate), as soon as dbconfig-common has been completely tested (specially by means of a series of "experimental" bacula-director package releases) and Sarge has been released. Sorry if i sounded too harsh, but there is no way that i can get everything migrated with so little time. And then, wwwconfig-common is quite a mess to be used in Bacula's postinst scripts -- dbconfig-common is the way to go. Anyways, your attention and suggestion is very much appreciated. Please keep the feedback coming. Best, J.L. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
