Is the fix really that simple ?

Actually make_catalog_backup_awk holds the first line:

#!/usr/bin/gawk -f

which is obviously correct. Durung the bacula call mawk got involved (it
was a server installation). I guess the callee does a command like "awk
-f /etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup_awk" which is even wrong if
mawk has precendence over gawk by using /etc/alternatives/awk. I guess
you need to inspect a bit deeper.

ah yes - i just took a look at bacula-dir.conf in /etc/bacula, there it
is:

RunBeforeJob = "/usr/bin/awk -f
/etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup_awk -v cat1=MyCatalog
/etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf"

there the /usr/bin/awk needs to be changed to /usr/bin/gawk as well.

greetings,
Fred
