so, we have 5.2.13 -> 7.0.5 upgrade in th


https://github.com/pld-linux/bacula/blob/auto/th/bacula-7.0.5-1/bacula.spec#L494-L499
# install the updatedb scripts for older versions that last full release
# 2.0 -> 3.0 : 10_to_11
# 5.0 -> 5.2 : 12_to_14
install -p updatedb/update_*_tables_10_to_11 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/%{name}
install -p updatedb/update_*_tables_11_to_12 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/%{name}
install -p updatedb/update_*_tables_12_to_14 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/%{name}


i looked bacula website and found 7.2.0 and 7.4.0 there
so i tried to build 7.2.0 and it would have such files (12->13->14, not 
12-14)

install -p updatedb/update_*_tables_10_to_11 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/%{name}
install -p updatedb/update_*_tables_11_to_12 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/%{name}
install -p updatedb/update_*_tables_12_to_13 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/%{name}
install -p updatedb/update_*_tables_13_to_14 
$RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_libexecdir}/%{name}

looks like 7.2.0 is older than 7.0.5? like 7.2 is development branch for 
7.0? huh? and they both result v14 database?

so i'm a bit confused of their releases, and what version series we 
should stick in pld?

the problem i have is that i have bacula5 director, and having upraded 
clients to bacula7 results authentication failures
yet if i read 7.4.0 release notes http://blog.bacula.org/release-7-4-0/

it claims: " Upgrading should be easy since there is no database change 
and all older File Daemons should remain compatible with Bacula 7.4.0."
of course i don't know do they claim if 5.2 clients can connect there or not
