Description of problem: I installed bacula-dir-common on my computer and found out that some files are missing. When I rpm -ql, I got: /etc/bacula/.pw.sed /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf /etc/bacula/scripts /etc/bacula/scripts/delete_catalog_backup /etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup /etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup.pl /etc/bacula/scripts/query.sql /etc/logrotate.d/bacula-dir /etc/rc.d/init.d/bacula-dir /usr/lib64/bacula/create_bacula_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_bacula_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_bacula_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/grant_bacula_privileges /usr/lib64/bacula/make_bacula_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_bacula_tables /usr/sbin/bacula-dir /usr/sbin/bscan /usr/sbin/dbcheck /usr/share/man/man8/bacula-dir.8.xz /usr/share/man/man8/bscan.8.xz /usr/share/man/man8/dbcheck.8.xz but some files are not installed on my system, for example: ll /usr/sbin/bacula-dir /usr/sbin/bscan /usr/sbin/dbcheck ls: cannot access /usr/sbin/bacula-dir: No such file or directory ls: cannot access /usr/sbin/bscan: No such file or directory ls: cannot access /usr/sbin/dbcheck: No such file or directory when I try to verify the package, it doesnt check the missing files: rpm -vV bacula-dir-common S.?....T. c /etc/bacula/bacula-dir.conf ......... /etc/bacula/scripts ......... c /etc/bacula/scripts/delete_catalog_backup ......... c /etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup ......... c /etc/bacula/scripts/make_catalog_backup.pl ......... c /etc/bacula/scripts/query.sql ......... c /etc/logrotate.d/bacula-dir ......... /etc/rc.d/init.d/bacula-dir ......... d /usr/share/man/man8/bacula-dir.8.xz ......... d /usr/share/man/man8/bscan.8.xz ......... d /usr/share/man/man8/dbcheck.8.xz
Those are %ghost files in the spec file

bacula-dir-common exists only as a requirement for the various DB specific bacula-dir-XXX packages. bacula-dir-common should not be installed by itself but should be brought in while installing the DB specific director package. The %ghost files are there, because during installation of bacula-dir-XXX a symlink is created from the DB specific director and tools to the generic name.

bacula-dir-common came as I installed bacula-dir-sqlite3 but when I list the files of this last package here is what I find: rpm -ql bacula-dir-sqlite3-5.2.12-1.mga3 /usr/lib64/bacula/create_sqlite3_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_sqlite3_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_sqlite3_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/grant_sqlite3_privileges /usr/lib64/bacula/make_sqlite3_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite3_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite3_tables_10_to_11 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite3_tables_11_to_12 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite3_tables_12_to_14 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite3_tables_8_to_9 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite3_tables_9_to_10 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite_tables_4_to_5 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite_tables_5_to_6 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite_tables_6_to_7 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_sqlite_tables_7_to_8 the other two packages dont list the binaries file neither urpmq -l bacula-dir-mysql /usr/lib64/bacula/create_mysql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_mysql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_mysql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/grant_mysql_privileges /usr/lib64/bacula/make_mysql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_10_to_11 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_11_to_12 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_12_to_14 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_4_to_5 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_5_to_6 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_6_to_7 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_7_to_8 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_8_to_9 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_9_to_10 /usr/lib64/bacula/create_mysql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_mysql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_mysql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/grant_mysql_privileges /usr/lib64/bacula/make_mysql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_10_to_11 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_11_to_12 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_12_to_14 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_4_to_5 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_5_to_6 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_6_to_7 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_7_to_8 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_8_to_9 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_mysql_tables_9_to_10 urpmq -l bacula-dir-pgsql /usr/lib64/bacula/create_postgresql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_postgresql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_postgresql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/grant_postgresql_privileges /usr/lib64/bacula/make_postgresql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_10_to_11 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_11_to_12 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_12_to_14 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_7_to_8 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_8_to_9 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_9_to_10 /usr/lib64/bacula/create_postgresql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_postgresql_database /usr/lib64/bacula/drop_postgresql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/grant_postgresql_privileges /usr/lib64/bacula/make_postgresql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_10_to_11 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_11_to_12 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_12_to_14 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_7_to_8 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_8_to_9 /usr/lib64/bacula/update_postgresql_tables_9_to_10
uhm. seems i was still in the past. now bacula is built using shared libraries for the catalog, so the binaries do not need to be symlinked at install. it means "%ghost" should be removed from these 3 lines in bacula.spec 1114 %ghost %{_sbindir}/bacula-dir 1115 %ghost %{_sbindir}/dbcheck 1116 %ghost %{_sbindir}/bscan sorry for the misunderstanding.
