Hello, 

We recently found and corrected a serious bug in Bacula that causes jobs to be 
orphaned or "stuck" in the director during the pruning process.  Depending on 
what jobs get stuck and how many there are, it could prevent additional jobs 
from running.  As best we can tell, this problem occurs only during what 
could be called extreme pruning conditions -- i.e. there are insufficient 
Volumes available for normal operations.

In any case, we recommend that everyone apply the 2.4.3-orphaned-jobs.patch, 
which you can find in the bacula-patches section of the Source Forge download 
area as well as in the directory patches of both the trunk and Branch-2.4 
SVN.

Best regards,

Kern
