(Get the code!)
A strange series of events just happened which lead to the successful conversion of the bacula DB. This is what happened:
Initially, I had been using Gnome shell. I logged out because I couldn't access my contacts in Evolution. I logged into Unity and I can access my Evolution contacts (which are GMail contacts).
I added an external ppa to install some extra icons.
Using Synaptic package manager, I selected the icon packages I wanted to and applied the changes. During the icon package install, a window opened up asking for the MySQL root password. There is not normally a connection between the icons and MySQL.
I can't explain how this happened and why the MySQL password window started up, but the end result is that the Bacula DB has been correctly upgraded and the director is now running correctly.
As far as I'm concerned, this is no longer a bug for me.
Thank you for all your help. If you can offer some explanation, I'm willing to read it.
