Another followup. One thing I learned, I need to remove all the Ubuntu
bundled bacula 9 packages before doing the apt-get install bacula-mysql
for the Community 13 release, otherwise there are package conflicts.
So after removing the old packages, apt-get install bacula-mysql tires
to install the mysql bacula database. It gets caught at
mysql said: ERROR 1050 (42S01) at line 9: Table 'TagJob' already exists
I imagine if I removed that table it would just get caught at the next one.
Its not really clear on how to proceed preserving the current database 9
info and letting 13 do the update job.

This is a followup of my previous posts. I'm doing an upgrade from
Bacula 9 to 13 on Ubuntu 23.04. I realize there is no specific support
for 23.04 so I'm making believe I'm on Jammy.
I've gotten past the apt-key issue and sources are set up, and apt-get
update has succeeded. Now my question is about the next step dealing
with the fact that this is an upgrade of a working Bacula 9
installation. (Don't worry, its really on a test machine before I try
it on a production machine).
So I know I need to copy /etc/bacula to a safe place. Should I also
delete it?
I will also stop director , sd, and fd. and move those binaries out of
the way.
I'm running mysql. Should I do anything there to the existing bacula
data base?
Assuming the answers to those the next stop is
apt-get install bacula-mysql
I would assume I then copy back the saved /etc/bacula back in place
and then start the new binaries.
What about updating the mysql tables from 9 to 13? Where does that
happen.
Sorry for all the needy questions. This is my first time not using the
bundled Ubuntu package support for Bacula which handles updates
transparently. Debian/Ubuntu has no Bacula maintainer now.

Side issue about the Documentation, what is the "concatenate" note
about. It makes no sense, deb would just be an ignored comment.
Complete example:
#Bacula Community
deb [arch=amd64]
https://www.bacula.org/packages/abc123defxxxyyy/debs/13.0.1 xenial main
Note 1: please concatenate the last 2 lines into 1 line.
