Yes, Raspbian is 32 bit but I understand that a 64 bit version has been released recently. That may be the best option for me as probably very few would want to use Bacula on a 32 bit environment and it would be too much work to port Baculum.
Bacula btw runs perfectly. I'd be interested to know what the basic issue is with Baculum on 32 bit arch. Best Chris.
