I had in mind your paging through the two files in separate windows
side-by-side, eyeballing for differences in program activity.
For "diff" to be much use you really need to strip off the front part of
each line (datetime, pid, and thd), using something like:
$ sed -e's/.*00: amtape:/amtape:/' amtape-java.debug > amtape-java.debug_clean
$ sed -e's/.*00: amtape:/amtape:/' amtape_shell.debug >
amtape_shell.debug_clean
(and then running the diff on the _clean versions).
However, looking through the listing you posted, I did notice something:

> Disabling Amanda::Interactivity::stdin because STDIN is not readable
So it does appear that some Interactivity based on the stdin.pm module
was used by that particular invocation of amtape....
I'm still pretty confused about the exact behavior you are seeing (i.e.
why it's hanging in the Java context, and why the attempt to pass in an
empty -ointeractivity option doesn't seem to make any difference,
etc.)...
... but since the stdin plugin is deprecated, it seems worth
investigating where that's getting configured in the first place...
I see from the above messages that amanda is reading both
deepsoft-normal/amanda.conf and deepsoft-common/amanda.conf .
(If it's not clear from those files where the default interactivity is
being set, it might help for you to post the output of "amadmin
deepsoft-normal config"...)
