The error is triggered by a change in the way the daemons are started,
as indicated in the changelog, but the core error is the wrong group
(dirmngr != bacula) on your system.

I really think this happened during your system move (it happened to me
as well in the past, forgot to add --numeric-ids to rsync) but you did
not notice it, because most users either matched or the programs don't
care about them, because they are started as root.

I guess if you check other dynamic system users (meaning users created
by packaging scripts and not hardcoded into base-passwd) and groups you
will still find additional mismatches somewhere in /etc and other places.

Grüße,
Sven.
