Hello,

Bacula 7.2.0 is now in rawhide (Fedora 24) and pending update in Fedora 23, the idea is to have Fedora 23 already shipping with Bacula 7.2.x.

I'm planning to delete the Bacula 5.x repository on fedorapeople [1] and just leave the one that contains Bacula 7.0.x [2] for CentOS/RHEL 5/6/7.

While the COPR repository [3] will always contain the latest Bacula package (currently 7.2.x), that means you can have an eterogeneous infrastructure with supported (non EOL) releases of Fedora/CentOS/RHEL all running the same Bacula daemon versions.

Summing up, this is the current status in the distributions:

- el5 (through EPEL) - Bacula 2.4
- el6 - Bacula 5.0.0
- el7 - Bacula 5.2.13
- f21/f22 - Bacula 7.0.5
- f23/rawhide - Bacula 7.2.0

With the addition of one of the two repositories, users will have the choice of installing version 7.0.5 or 7.2.0 for ALL supported distributions, including RHEL 7. That means, the same Fedora 23 versions down to CentOS/RHEL 5.

Any questions, requests, comments, regarding RHEL/CentOS/Fedora packages and repositories are welcome.

Regards,
--Simone
