Perharps someone in the project should have a look and get info to build a
bacula repository inside the Open Build System (OBS) from opensuse

https://build.opensuse.org/

It would allow bacula project to build to lot's of linux distro and arch, and differents versions.

Opensuse will have somes conferences during their conferences taking place 17 September to the  20.
I will be there to learn building rpm (Scott give me the urge), installing & using this tool.
