This should not cause +any problems and at least keeps the installation library cleaner. +!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! + +!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! +For packagers, if you change options, naming, and the way +we link our shared object files, as at least one of you does, +you are creating a situation where the user may not be able +to run multiple versions of Bacula on the same machine, which +is often very useful, and in addition, you create a configuration +that the project cannot properly support. +!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! + +!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! +If you are upgrading from a version older than 5.2.7, please +read all the old ReleaseNotes of all versions released +after the version you are upgrading from.
