Hey,

there is an outdated package for bacula in the Arch Linux AUR:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bacula-dir/

I updated the PKGBUILD for 7.2.0 which is available here:
http://www.george-net.de/aur/bacula/PKGBUILD-bacula-7.2.0

I found some glitches with the current PKGBUILD:

* /var/log/bacula is not created by the packages, this causes the start
of the director to fail.
* /etc/bacula/scripts is not readable for user postgres. Thus database
scripts cannot be executed properly. I think it would it be OK to have
/etc/bacula and children world readable as long as the config files are
only readable by root (clear text passwords).
* Generated config files are in the package, i.e. static. They should be
generated at package installation to have unique passwords and proper
hostname.


If anybody would be willing to fix these, go ahead. I may do it some
time in the future.

Regards,
Georg
