Hi Again,

I just checked Ubuntu and it looks like 3.0.2 is the newest that they 
have packaged. That is the version in both the ppa archive and in the 
current image for the upcoming lucid release.

https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-bacula/+archive/ppa

It should be possible to build locally from the Debian source archive 
without changing much (if anything). I will likely give this a try in 
the next week or so but other committments mean that I don't know when.

Regards

Richard
