With this help and some search around i finally managed to build  
Bacula 5.2.10 the Debian/Ubuntu way like this:

1.) Create new directory and grab build environment with "apt-get  
source bacula"

2.) Get build dependencies with apt-get build-dep bacula

3.) Extract original source in another dir and copy over the "debian"  
dir from the Ubuntu build environment

4.) With "debchange -i" create a new Changelog entry with correct  
version number

5.) Do a "debuild -us -uc -i -I" and correct any debian patch failures

Voila, new deb packages with version 5.2.10 :-)

Thanks for the help

Andreas
