Description Orion Poplawski 2011-11-08 23:24:50 UTC
Description of problem:

yum install amanda-client brings in amanda-server via the perl(Amanda::Logfile) dep in /usr/sbin/amanda_client.

For now I think perl(Amanda::Logfile) needs to be moved into the amanda package.  

But I'm not sure that amdump_client should be using Amanda::Logfile at all as I wouldn't think any amanda logs would be on the client.  On closer inspection it seems to only use the Amanda::Logfile::match_disk function which probably should be moved into Amanda::Utils.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
3.3.0-2.fc16

Comment 5 Patrick C. F. Ernzer 2011-11-29 00:18:39 UTC
with amanda-3.3.0-3.fc16 I was able to rpm -e amanda-server from a client box as expected.

Did not comment in Bodhi yet, as I am still chasing why my amanda-2.6.1p2-7.el6.x86_64 on the server fails to backup the one machine in this network freshly installed with F16. (worked fine up to F15 and I copied over .amandahosts and exclude.gtar from the F15 /)

Comment 6 Orion Poplawski 2011-11-29 02:42:01 UTC
amanda 3 defaults to bsdtcp auth over TCP rather than bsdudp auth over udp.  You may need to modify the /etc/xinetd.d/amanda file on the F16 or change the server to use bsdtcp to that host.

Comment 7 Fedora Update System 2012-03-17 23:34:26 UTC
amanda-3.3.0-3.fc16 has been pushed to the Fedora 16 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 8 Dustin J. Mitchell 2013-03-05 13:12:10 UTC
The patch was incorrectly applied.

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/scm-commits/2011-November/687811.html

only changes Logfile.swg and Util.swg, not the underlying C files.  Those need to be regenerated with SWIG and the resulting diffs patched, as well.  The failure to do so has led to undefined-subroutine errors while running Amanda:

Comment 9 Orion Poplawski 2013-03-16 14:44:47 UTC
I'm updating to 3.3.1 in f17 to address this.
