Thank you, forwarded upstream to:

This means that we can *safely* apply the patch.  Alexander, can you
do it in the Git repository, directly in the master branch?  You should
add your patch in debian/patches, something similar to:

  <http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-bacula/bacula.git;a=commitdiff;h=a64dee5c2199af135e7f91978c61909829756d0b>

Uploading to oldstable/lenny is no more possible, given that it reached
EOL on 2012-03-10:

  <http://lists.debian.org/E1S6RgP-0006tF-GE@mikado.tilapin.org>

While we could provide a fixed package in the pkg-bacula HTTP space,
IMHO it is better to focus on stable, thus "obliging" people to move on
something which is fully supported.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
