12 <li><b>Bacula</b> has been compiled and run on Linux RedHat, FreeBSD,
13 and Solaris systems.</li>
14 <li>It requires GNU C++ version 2.95 or higher to compile. You can try
15 with other compilers and older versions, but you are on your
16 own. We have successfully compiled and used Bacula on
17 RH8.0/RH9/RHEL 3.0 with GCC 3.2. Note, in general GNU C++ is a
18 separate package (e.g. RPM) from GNU C, so you need them both
19 loaded. On RedHat systems, the C++ compiler is part of the
20 <b>gcc-c++</b> rpm package. </li>
22 <li>There are certain third party packages that Bacula needs.
23 Except for MySQL and PostgreSQL, they can all be found in the
24 <b>depkgs</b> and <b>depkgs1</b> releases.</li>
25 <li>If you want to build the Win32 binaries, you will need a
26 Microsoft Visual C++ compiler (or Visual Studio).
27 Although all components build (console has
28 some warnings), only the File daemon has been tested. </li>
29 <li><b>Bacula</b> requires a good implementation of pthreads to work.
30 This is not the case on some of the BSD systems.</li>
31 <li>The source code has been written with portability in mind and is
32 mostly POSIX compatible. Thus porting to any POSIX compatible
33 operating system should be relatively easy.</li>
34 <li>The GNOME Console program is developed and tested under GNOME 2.x.
35 It also runs under GNOME 1.4 but this version is deprecated and
36 thus no longer maintained.</li>
38 <li>The wxWidgets Console program is developed and tested with the
39 latest stable version of <a
40 href="http://www.wxwidgets.org/">wxWidgets</a> (2.6). It
41 works fine with the Windows and GTK+-1.x version of wxWidgets,
42 and should also works on other platforms supported by
44 <li>The Tray Monitor program is developed for GTK+-2.x. It needs
45 Gnome >=2.2, KDE >=3.1 or any window manager supporting the
46 <a href="http://www.freedesktop.org/Standards/systemtray-spec">
47 FreeDesktop system tray standard</a>.</li>
48 <li>If you want to enable command line editing and history, you will
49 need to have /usr/include/termcap.h and either the termcap or the
50 ncurses library loaded (libtermcap-devel or ncurses-devel).</li>
