Thanks for the explanation; I've familiar with the DB upgrade process
(having just fixed it for 12.04) hence why I'm looking at this bug as
well.

So long as you use the dbconfig-common option to configure the
database then the bacula database is upgraded from version 10 -> 11 ->
12 - so the packaging does take this into account.
