Unfortunately, recent policies do not allow me to try this in base of a
production server and that's what I have now.
If doing this in a jail won't work, I'll have to wait until I have a
spare machine available and that will be a one-time shot anyway (while I
hoped to leave the jail running with crons).
If that's not too much a waste of your time, I'd be curious to know why
a jail won't do.
TIA.

That's fair: I wouln't expect anyone to support csh.
However that's the default on some systems and, in spite of that, I
never had the need to explicitly change the shell of the user: the
configure script and/or the shebangs would pick sh anyway.
I suggest a note is added to the documentation that everything must
explicitly be run from sh.

I'm using this guide, as suggested by Dan:
> http://www.bacula.org/7.0.x-manuals/en/developers/Bacula_Regression_Testing.html
There it says to type "git clone http://git.bacula.org/bacula bacula".
However, on my system:
> $ git clone http://git.bacula.org/bacula bacula

So I had a look into http://git.bacula.org/ and run:
> git clone http://git.bacula.org/bacula.git bacula
This worked.
I think I grasp the basics of git, but I'm no expert.
If that's a weirdness on my box, please ignore this.

Sorry, I meant sqlite3-3.18.0.

I'll eventually try MySQL (and Postgres when I'll be able).

I found the problem and was able to run the tests.
Right now I'm at 3 tests failing, but I will investigate these too ASAP.

Thanks a lot.
