== SVN repository Management == First you need to get the content of the SVN repository: {{{ # cd /to/desired/path # svn checkout svn://svn.mondorescue.org/mondorescue/branches/stable }}} or {{{ # svn checkout svn://svn.mondorescue.org/mondorescue/trunk }}} == Package build process == This is currently working for a lot of distributions (including Fedora, Mandriva, openSuSE, RHEL, SLES, debian, ubuntu, gentoo) In order to build mondo and mindi packages, you need to use the [http://trac.project-builder.org project-builder] tool. From the last 2.2.x SVN tree extracted you need to launch: {{{ # pb -p mondorescue cms2pkg }}} which will create for you both the compressed tar files (step cms2build) and then from those the packages (step build2pkg) If you have or want to create virtual machines of other distributions that you want to generate packages for, you ave to build and set them u using: {{{ pb -p mondorescue -m distro-version-arch -i distro-dvd.iso newvm pb -p mondorescue -m distro-version-arch setupvm }}} Then you can use pb to generate packages for that distro by doing: {{{ pb -p mondorescue -m distro-version-arch cms2vm }}} which will create for you both the compressed tar files (step cms2build) and then from those the packages in the VM (step build2vm), and get them back and send them to a server with ssh. An evolution is planned for RPM packages to create hierarchies of package to ease deployment : {{{ mondorescue | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | | | mondorescue-tape mondorescue-cd mondorescue-nfs ..... | | | ------------------- -------------- --------------- | | | | | | | | mt buffer | | cdrecord | nfs-utils mondo-/----------------/ | ---------------------------------------------------- | | | | | mindi afio mkisofs newt syslinux | mindi-busybox }}} == RPM rebuild process == From the sources rpm packages the nearest from your distro (that you can get from ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org), you may build packages for your target distribution by doing: {{{ # rpm -ivh mindi*.src.rpm mondo*.src.rpm # rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/*/SPECS/mondo.spec # rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/*/SPECS/mindi.spec # rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/*/SPECS/mindi-busybox.spec # rpm -ivh /usr/src/*/RPMS/*/mondo*.*.rpm /usr/src/*/RPMS/*/mindi*.*.rpm }}} == File rebuild process == From the tar.gz files available under ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org/src, you may build and install MondoRescue by doing for each package: {{{ # tar xvfz mondo*tar.gz # cd mondo* # ./configure # make # make install # cd .. # tar xvfz mindi-busybox*tar.gz # cd mindi-busybox* # ./configure # make # make install # cd .. # tar xvfz mindi-[0-9]*tar.gz # cd mindi-[0-9]* # # ./install.sh # cd .. }}} == Applying patches == You may want to apply patches to a given version of mondo and/or mindi in order to fix an annoying issue. Look at SVN through [http://trac.mondorescue.org/browser that] interface. Say that you want to apply [http://trac.mondorescue.org/changeset/1488 revision 1488] which was issued after 2.2.3 of mondo to your 2.2.3 version to fix OCFS support. First save the revision under /tmp as a patch file format (Use the Unified Diff link at the bottom of the changeset page) Then use the previous File Rebuild Process paragraph, but before calling make to build the software, apply your previously saved patch by doing {{{ cd /tmp wget ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org/src/mondo-2.2.3.tar.bz2 wget "http://trac.mondorescue.org/changeset/1488?format=diff" tar xvfj mondo-2.2.3.tar.bz2 cd mondo-2.2.3 patch -s -p3 < ../1488\?format=diff }}} After that you may have to solve conflicts (due to the fact that as in this case the patch doesn't apply cleanly as other patches in the middle are missing) Then again you can use the configure ; make ; make install trilogy. == Debian related info == === Location of mondo and mindi official Debian packages === * ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/mondo * ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/mindi * ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/mindi-busybox QA for Debian * http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mondo.html * http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mindi.html * http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mindi-busybox.html Status for testing * http://release.debian.org/migration/testing.pl?package=mondo === Bug tracking === * http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=mondo * http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=mindi * http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?package=mindi-busybox === Location of mondo and mindi pre-releases Debian packages === * http://people.debian.org/~andree/packages/ This directory contains pre-releases of Mondo Rescue Debian packages.

If you have no idea what to do with these packages, Andree suggests you just use the ones that come with Debian proper instead. === Location of mondo and mindi Backports for Debian Sarge 3.1 by Lubos === * http://lrk.com.au/mindo_backports/index.html (not available anymore it seems) == Location of mondo and mindi un-official SuSE packages by Mike == * http://www.mikenjane.net/~mike/ * http://build.opensuse.org/project/show?project=Archiving%3ABackup%3AMondoRescue == Info for Slackware packaging == * http://www.linuxpackages.net/howto.php?page=slack-desc&title=Slackware+Desc+File * http://www.linuxpackages.net/howto.php?page=package&title=Package+Howto == Info for Mandriva official packaging == * http://mdv.vmlinuz.ca/Development/Packaging/BuildSystem/QuickRef * http://kenobi.mandriva.com/bs/build.php Latest packages for cooker are available at : * http://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/devel/cooker/SRPMS/contrib/release/ Build process status : * http://kenobi.mandriva.com/ (generic entry point) * http://kenobi.mandriva.com/bs/output.php (status) == Info for Trixbox distro == * http://www.trixbox.org/forums/trixbox-forums/help/mondo-rescue-backup-howto == Info for Fedora official packaging == * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=187317 (mindi) * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=187318 (mondo) * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=476234 (mindi-busybox) * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=462982 (buffer) * https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=449037 (afio) * http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers == Info for Gentoo official packaging == * http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106497 * http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=79262 * http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=84106 * http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176738 == Info for Arch Linux == * http://www.invoca.ch/pub/packages/buffer/buffer-1.19-8.src.rpm (buffer) * http://members.brabant.chello.nl/~k.holtman/afio-2.5.tgz (afio) == Info for FreeBSD packaging == * http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/book.html == Location of mondo and mindi Files == ||'''Distributions'''||'''File base install'''|| ||/usr/sbin/mindi||/usr/local/sbin/mindi|| ||/usr/sbin/analyze-my-lvm||/usr/local/sbin/analyze-my-lvm|| ||/usr/sbin/mondoarchive||/usr/local/sbin/mondoarchive|| ||/usr/sbin/mondorestore||/usr/local/sbin/mondorestore|| ||/etc/m?nd?||/usr/local/etc/m?nd?|| ||/usr/share/doc/m?nd?*||/usr/local/share/doc/m?nd?*|| ||/usr/share/man/man8/m?nd?*.8||/usr/local/share/man/man8/m?nd?*.8|| ||/usr/lib/mindi||/usr/local/lib/mindi|| ||/usr/share/mondo||/usr/local/share/mondo|| == Installing from YUM == The ftp site is also set up as a yum repository. You can install and update your mindi/mondo packages using yum. First create a file in your yum repo directory like the following (you may download it from our ftp server in each fedora/version directory). Note that this sample is for fedora. You will need to edit a bit for other distros. {{{ [root@tesla yum.repos.d]# cat mondo.repo [mondorpms] name=Fedora Core $releasever - mondo baseurl=ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org/fedora/$releasever/ #gpgkey=http://somethin/RPM-GPG-KEY enabled=1 gpgcheck=0 }}} Such a file is now automatically produced by project-builder in available on the ftp srver at the same place s the pacakges. Now just use the command: {{{ # yum install mondo or # yum update mondo }}} yum will discover that mindi is a dependency for mondo and add it to your list. project-builder also generates debin configuration files for apt so that you can use our repositories to apt-get install your packages more easily.
