Yes Roberto, as the Bacula project manager, I find this Ubuntu "bug"
quite frustrating. The problem is three fold:

1. Ubuntu builds Bacula with flags that are not recommended by the
Bacula project.

2. Ubuntu (at least for Bacula) does not (or did not) test the packages
that are build.

3. Once the LTS is made, Ubuntu, at least to me, seems *very* slow at
fixing problems and releasing the fixes to the LTS.

The Bacula project will, in the next few months, distribute its own
binaries, which are tested prior to release.  For those of you who
decide to switch to using the project binaries, this kind of problem
will then be resolved.  The main issue in that case will be for the
Bacula project to provide packages for new distro releases in a
reasonable time.  Maybe the solution is to go back to the good old days
of building with static libraries -- i.e. to build binaries that are
self contained and will thus run on virtually all versions of a give
distro (or even multiple distros).
