Yes. It is getting increasingly difficult to get all of the static libraries installed.

Forget the static builds and create a live CD (or USB stick or virtual machine) that includes the dynamic libraries and dynamic versions of Bacula tools. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Bacula-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/bacula-users
