Bacula.org will release them.

We have the binaries packaged already, but

We have two obstacles:
1. Installing a distribution system on bacula.org -- not too hard and in progress

2. I forgot we have to release the build scripts, and our Enterprise build scripts, which is what we used are not appropriate (way too complicated), so we have gone back to the drawing board. Of course, we could release the binaries without build scripts while we work on them, but that would be in violation of the AGPLv3. By the way, most of the build/install scripts (RedHat, OSX, SuSE, ...) are in the source code, but for Debian and a few other distros they are not.

One more point:
I find the current way of spreading Bacula binaries all over a system to be counter productive for a backup program that should also be able to back itself up including *all* its scripts and conf files. Thus all our binaries will install Bacula in /opt/bacula/...

Bottom line: if you cannot accept our packaging (used for all Enterprise installations), you will need the packaging scripts to build Bacula yourself.
