Berner,

First, I've corrected you e-mail so that it goes to the list, and not to 
me directly.

Yes.  The lead contributor to Bacula is a active PostgreSQL project 
participant; I'll see if he'll look into your issue.

This is a bad idea if you care about your database.

So, PostgreSQL 8.1 is now official supported by Sun and ships with 
Solaris 10 update 2 or later.  It is recommended that you use that 
rather and an out-of-date version.   Second, see
