I'd been trying to wrapper gtar for amanda on one of our backed-up servers,
with a script.I compiled with the GNUTAR option on the client machine:
./configure --with-user=amanda --with-group=disk --without-server \
--with-gnutar=/usr/local/bin/amanda-gtar
After a configure run with the above options, on a clean tree, I can see
in the top-level Makefile:
GNUTAR = /bin/gtar
This problem was, of course, propigated down through the lower-level
Makefiles. Is this a known problem, or just my cruddy luck? I've
edited the Makefiles by hand to get around this.
I'm building on RedHat 7.1, version is amanda-2.4.2p2.
Cheers,
-mh.
