Thanks for pointing that out, as I wouldn't have known based on 
published info.

I've pulled svn, butchered Ubuntu's source package for 2.4 to build 2.5 
instead, and am testing it now.

Is bacula SVN stable enough to be worth considering for production 
backups? ie - is there a test suite run regularly, etc? I'm in *serious* 
need of deleted file tracking, but nervous about using a prerelease.

I'm planning on running backups of the deleted-file-handling-critical 
stuff in parallel with 2.5svn on a smaller scale for a while before I 
even consider moving anything important over to it exclusively. I'm 
curious to know what you think of using 2.5, with suitable testing, though.
