[PLUG] Bacula in Ubuntu

[Paul Goins]

Seems like this was intentional due to a Debian bug at the time.  Note this
from https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/jammy/amd64/bacula:

Removed from disk on 2022-07-23.
Removal requested on 2021-12-08.

FTBFS, removed from Debian testing, blocks libssl transition; Debian bug
#997139

Best Regards,
Paul Goins
