I would recommend to the packagers to move up to Bacula version 2.4.2 as quickly as possible. Versions 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 had a number of important problems concerning mounting tape volumes particularly in manual mount situations (non-autochanger). Version 2.4.2 is a "critical" bug fix to versions 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 that is completely compatible with no major changes other than bug fixes and has proved quite stable.
