Hello,

that's related to Fedora packaging and should not be addressed to this list.

Please take a look at your installed file:

/usr/share/doc/bacula-common-5.2.12/README.Fedora

What's missing is only your choice in the alternatives system for the
database backend:


# alternatives --config libbaccats.so

There are 3 programs which provide 'libbaccats.so'.

  Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
   1           /usr/lib64/libbaccats-mysql.so
 + 2           /usr/lib64/libbaccats-sqlite3.so
*  3           /usr/lib64/libbaccats-postgresql.so

Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number:

Regards,
--Simone
