If you want to do that, then please go ahead, but strictly speaking this
is not something that belongs to Debian, but in upstream manual.  Debian
provides a way to manage local and remote database, via dbconfig-common.
If the admin changes that, than she/he should *know* that automatic
upgrades could fail (Debian can not assure all possible configurations).

Enrico, I am sorry for the bug, but I bet that having configured the
remote database via dbconfig-common (thus via `dpkg-reconfigure
bacula-director-mysql`) would have resulted in a correct upgrade.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
