I built 5.0.0 binary rpms from the srpm on SF
CentOS 5, 64-bit, mysql

rpmbuild --rebuild \
--define "build_centos5 1" \
--define "build_mysql5 1" \
--define "build_python 1" \
--define "nobuild_gconsole 1" \
bacula-5.0.0-1.src.rpm

Then, I upgraded my 3.0.3 system:
rpm -Uvh bacula-mysql-5.0.0-1.x86_64.rpm


Some minor issues I noticed:

- upgrade touched existing old conf files
  (just updated timestamp, not a real problem but a little bit annoying)

- upgrade did not upgrade the catalog 11-to-12 automatically
  (previous releases used to do this)


This made catalog backup fail using the new password system:

- director can not execute this:
-rwxr-xr-- 1 root root 96720 Feb  3 19:28 /usr/sbin/dbcheck
(I think this is already fixed, I saw afterwards a post about it)

- a security issue: world-writable permissions on this temporary file during
catalog backup:
----rw-rw- 1 bacula bacula 129691468 Feb  3 22:25 bacula.sql
(maybe not only an rpm issue?)


Anyway, once again many thanks to all the developers for this release!
