So, this is not a bug in package, but dbconfig-common habits.
Ofcourse, we should describe database upgrade habits in
README.Debian
UPGRADE section.
If you want to do that, then please go ahead, but strictly speaking
this
is not something that belongs to Debian, but in upstream manual.
Debian
provides a way to manage local and remote database, via
dbconfig-common.
If the admin changes that, than she/he should *know* that automatic
upgrades could fail (Debian can not assure all possible
configurations).
We should describe differences from upstream - dbconfig-common usage
and common troubles.
It is something difficult for me, because english is not native for me,
but i will try later.
Enrico, I am sorry for the bug, but I bet that having configured the
remote database via dbconfig-common (thus via `dpkg-reconfigure
bacula-director-mysql`) would have resulted in a correct upgrade.
No, we should not use dpkg-reconfigure for change database parameters
without database reinstallation.
If we run dpkg-reconfigure, dbconfig ask to reinstall database and
rewrite config file
In choice of "don't reinstall database", dbconfig rewrite config file
and add to it 'dbc_install=false', so this will stop future database
upgrades.
just to understand better (and avoid other useless bug reports):
everytime I modify my database settings I should run
dpkg-reconfigure?
doing the work twice? (one for actual conf and one for dbconfig)
or I should run dpkg-reconfigure and it updates my conf as well?
or my brain is dead and I have not understood anything?
If you change only database connect parameters (host, dbname, user,
password, etc), than you should not run dpkg-reconfigure, but should
make changes in two places:
1. in bacula config
2. in dbconfig files
(/etc/dbconfig-common/bacula-director-(mysql|pgsql|sqlite3).conf
thank you
Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
