Hello,
Yesterday I installed a new server using Rocky Linux 9 and Bareos 23.0.2. While starting with a minimal installation, I came to a point, where Bareos WebUI was running, but did not display any tape drives oder library slots. The cause was, that Bareos WebUI seems to get this info through „stat slots“ from Bareos itself, but there a strange error message was displayed.
Long story short: a provided script mtx-changer from package bareos-storage-tape is being used to extract that information. Mtx-changer is a shell script also using perl, but perl wasn’t installed on the server. Maybe it would be good to add a dependency to perl to avoid this situation.
Regards,
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
apparently you're right.
We thought we had removed everything that depends on perl in Bareos 23.
However, we missed that little inline perl script. Thanks for reporting
this!
Best Regards,
Andreas
