Hello Carsten,

Oh, sorry, I thought you had submitted Debian bug reports, but
they were Bacula bug reports.

On a quick look, this will correct the SQLite3 update script.
For the update_mysql_tables.in, I will need to take a closer
look.

Best regards,
Kern

promise nothing since the goal for the last few years has been to stop
spending time on SQLite.
They are at:

http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=2306

and there is also

http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=2307

about systemd.

Of course there is a problem for your existing SQLite users.  I see
the following
choices:
1. They remain on 9.0.3
2. They convert to using either MySQL or PostgreSQL -- I believe that
      it may be possible to simply take a SQLite3 sql dump and feed it
      directly into PostgreSQL.  (or at least the changes would be
minor).  For
      MySQL, the changes to the SQLite3 dump will probably be more
      important.
3. Debian continues to patch newer versions of Bacula to include support
     for SQLite3.  If you want to do this, you just need to reverse or
back out
     the SHA1 3f376bbd58d44a16032cb45373b11f6fd06d9589 commit that
     I just made then "recompile" configure.in by using "make configure".

I will at some point completely remove even the possibility of building
the SQLite3.  However, if you choose item #3 above, please inform me
and I will keep the old code around for another couple of years.

I hope the above helps you determine the least disruptive path to take.
Thanks for your input. I'll probably go with 3 while testing 2.

  - Carsten
