[Bacula-devel] fix build on FreeBSD 16

[Dan L. <da...@la...>]

Hello,

The attached patch fixes the build for check_bacula on FreeBSD 16 - conio.c should be including this but isn't. Respected sources say "looks like a change caused by FreeBSD 16 upgrading to ncurses 6.6, so it will probably affect other OSes at some point too."

The build error I get:

conio.c:150:23: error: variable has incomplete type 'struct termios'
  150 | static struct termios old_term_params;
      |                       ^
conio.c:150:15: note: forward declaration of 'termios'
  150 | static struct termios old_term_params;
      |               ^
conio.c:939:19: error: variable has incomplete type 'struct termios'
  939 |    struct termios t;

I'm running this patch under FreeBSD 15 without error.

[Bacula-devel] check_bacula - the -K parameter is not a hash

Hello,

While working on something else, I noticed the help description for the K parameter for check_bacula is incorrectly labelled as a hash. Testing reveals it is not.

That's my fault. I typed the email subject incorrectly.

This patch fixed the build for me.  My next step is running with that change for a few days
before declaring success.

Hello Олег,

You do not need to merge the entire backup chain in VirtualFull.
Starting from Bacula 7.0 there is a function to select jobids that
will be consolidated.

<div><div>Hello. I need to merge one incremental backup into a full backup from a chain of incremental backups. I couldn't find any built-in functionality in bacula, except for VirtualFull (which merges the entire backup chain into a new full backup, which isn't suitable for our needs).

[Bacula-devel] Bacula.org APT repo fails on Debian trixie due to SHA1 policy (sqv)

[Elias P. <emp...@gm...>]

Hi all,

On Debian trixie (APT using sqv/Sequoia), apt update fails for the
Bacula.org repository with an error similar to:

“Signing key …E9DF3643 is not bound … Policy rejected non-revocation
signature (PositiveCertification) requiring second pre-image resistance …
SHA1 is not considered secure since 2026-02-01”.

This seems related to SHA1 being rejected by policy on newer systems, so
the repo is effectively unusable on trixie without weakening signature
verification.

Is there an updated Bacula Distribution Verification Key (or re-signed
Release/InRelease) available that avoids SHA1, or any official
guidance/workaround planned for Debian trixie?

Thanks,

In this case, no.  It is just a very minor version difference and is unlikely
to affect the build.

The title of the current email is misleading though, because the failure is on
FreeBSD 16, not 15.

The problem is that conio.c doesn't include termios.h like it should.  It
looks like a change caused by FreeBSD 16 upgrading to ncurses 6.6, so it will
probably affect other OSes at some point too.

Re: [Bacula-devel] Build failures on FreeBSD 15

[Eric B. <er...@ba...>]

Hello Dan,

This is interesting because most of this code did not change much over the
years. I don't think that conio is needed for the nagios-check. You might
use readline instead of conio in the ./configure, that's more powerful
and it might solve gently the issue.

Best Regards,
Eric

I guess there are also different issue while using a wide screen.

I don't think I can package the documentation in it's current state. The
sources would need to be public and have a DFSG¹ compliant licence to be
part of Debian main.

I see a copyright statement but no licence for the new documentation.

[Bacula-devel] Updates to Bacula Documentation and Structure

[<er...@ba...>]

Hello everyone,

We would like to share an update on the evolution of the Bacula documentation, as several changes made over the past years now come together in a more unified structure.

Originally, our documentation was available as HTML and PDFs generated from LaTeX. As the project grew, we moved to an online format by transcribing the LaTeX sources into reStructuredText (rST) and using Sphinx to produce HTML content. This shift gave us a more flexible and maintainable system.

Building on that foundation, we have since introduced a number of improvements. The documentation now includes a search engine, a reorganized structure to make content easier to follow, and new introductory materials aimed at helping less experienced users get started more quickly. PDF versions of the main chapters remain available for those who prefer working with them.

Another important step in this process is that the documentation for Bacula Community and Bacula Enterprise is now offered in a single location. This is possible because the core codebase is mostly identical between the Community and Enterprise editions, with the main differences being related to plugins. As a result, a unified documentation makes sense and allows us to present the shared core concepts clearly, while articles are explicitly marked to indicate which edition they apply to. This makes it easier to navigate the common material while still highlighting distinctions where they matter.

We also want to take this opportunity to reaffirm that Bacula Systems continues its commitment to the Bacula Community project. We remain dedicated to bringing new features, enhancements, and updates to the Community edition, which we consider a key project within the open source ecosystem. We are proud to support such a large and diverse community of successful Bacula users worldwide.

We hope these changes make the documentation more accessible and useful for everyone. As always, your feedback is welcome and appreciated.

Best regards,
Eric

To expand on that 'bugs fixed':  It is mostly very good, but there is a 
longstanding (and long since reported) bug in which purging or deleting 
volumes spawns multiple redundant confirmation popups for the same 
operation, with different wording in each.

I *THINK* the problem of the operator being unable to override target

All I can do is to reiterate my desire to see the Qt console continue to 
be supported and maintained (and its bugs fixed).  I *hate and detest* 
the "Everything is a web page" metaphor.  Contrary to widespread belief, 
a web browser *is not* the best of all possible interfaces.

(In fact, the baggage that a web browser drags along to what should be a 
standalone application is often utterly infuriating.)

Hi all,

as Qt5 support here on Gentoo Linux is nearing its end, I would like to ask
again about the state of the bat Qt console for bacula? Any news here?

It would be a pitty if we would be forced the support.

So any comment ist welcome.

Sincerly,
    Thomas.

Hello Eric,

Thanks for directing this topic to Sean who fixed my account.
