I started to scan that document, and I saw this snippet:

    At present, the Catalog can be SQLite (not recommended),
    MySQL (also, not recommended, but if you have to use it,
    it's better than SQLite), [...]

Eh?  Have I missed some important point about using MySQL for Bacula's
catalog, or is this just the author's prejudices speaking?  Sure, 
<http://www.bacula.org/manuals/en/catalog/catalog/Catalog_Maintenance.html>
describes things about which one should be aware, but I don't recall
having seen anywhere a recommendation of Postgres over MySQL (or vice
versa) or a statement about significant benefits of one vs the other.
