I think I forgot to mention one limitation of the upgrade hack:
bacula has several database backends - however these are not pluggable 
(e.g. dlopen/so file). Therefore we have packages like 
bacula-directory-sqlite and bacula-director-mysql. Currently you can 
have both installed in parallel but use just one of them (that's where 
the alternatives come into play).

With the upgrade hack, the different db specific packages will conflict 
with each other. If a user has such a configuration he can not upgrade 
without removing one of the packages before.
