Jon from where did you get new packages (STABLE) for openSUSE 12.1 ?
seeing that name bacula-catalog-postgresql just proove me you are using the 
FACTORY (aka highly unstable "in terms of packaging")

Don't use that in production, at any moment we can break them (and you can be 
assured that we will),
Did you really understand what (recently) the description of the project on obs 
state : experimental

If you want bacula 5.2.3 you can build it from source, pick any other way to 
have it. Or use those on Factory repo
be be aware there's no warranty at all !! They are broken at this moment and 
will be broken at least for 2 more weeks

If you reboot ldconfig will destroy the libbaccats symlink done and you have to 
issue
update-alternative --auto libbaccats-5.2.3.so as a temporary fix

Happy new years
