Hello, The current released version (2.4.x) series under an interpretation that OpenSSL is not a system library routine, which is Debian's position, means that they cannot distribute Bacula with OpenSSL enabled (Bacula communications and data encryption).
The source code does exist, but is simply not enabled in the Debian binaries. As a consequence, if you want encryption in Bacula, there are two choices: 1. Build it from source yourself (perfectly legal -- only distribution violates the GPL license). 2. Wait for version 3.0.0 (currently in Beta testing as version 2.5.28-b1). This version has no licensing problems (pointer to details for version 2.4.x provided by John) and so Debian will be able to release it with OpenSSL compiled in.
