I am running Mint 18 Cinnamon 64-bit.  I loaded bacula from the
repository: bacula-console, bacula-fd, bacula-director-common, bacula-
common, bacula-sd-sqlite3, bacula-common-sqlite3. bacla-sd, and bacula-
director-sqlite3.  I set up my database and configuration files like I
had them on Mint 17.

All the daemons started with no problems: bacula-dir, bacula-sd, and
bacula-fd.  But when I started bconsole, it could not communicate with
bacula-dir:

trinity% sudo bconsole
[sudo] password for jmm:
Connecting to Director localhost:9101
Director authorization problem.
Most likely the passwords do not agree.
If you are using TLS, there may have been a certificate validation error
during the TLS handshake.
Please see
http://www.bacula.org/en/rel-manual/Bacula_Freque_Asked_Questi.html#SECTION00260000000000000000
for help.

After rechecking everything (the passwords actually do agree), I went to
the bacula-users email group to see if they could help.  One of the
other users there did a check, and found the same problem with a
completely default setup, so they looked deeper.  He noted that using
-Bsymbolic-functions linker switch was used in some of the Debian
builds, and was probably used in Ubuntu 16.04 package.  Kern Sibbald
said that bacula would fail if built with that switch, and so it does.

There is an Ubuntu proposed change to bacula 7.0.5+dfsg-4ubuntu0.1 in
16.04 to recompile without the -Bsymbolic-functions switch, but it has
not yet been pushed out, it looks like:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bacula/7.0.5+dfsg-4ubuntu0.1

Does Mint 18 get its bacula packages from Ubuntu?  I will report this
bug to Ubuntu as well, so that they might be motivated to release their
fixed version.  I don't know if that will fix things for Mint 18 too.
