Re: [Bacula-users] Bacula director crashes while labelling tapes with their barcodes.
The first and most obvious problem is that your Director and
Storage daemons must both be *exactly* the same version.

Hello!
I just got a used Dell TL2000 tape library to use with
Bacula (9.0.4 for the director on Ubuntu 16.04, 9.0.6 for the
storage director on Ubuntu 18.04).
I tested it with btape and mtx-changer and it passes all
tests (strongly inspired by Dan Langille's https://dan.langille.org/2016/02/04/dell-tl4000-tape-library-running-btape-and-configuring-baculas-mtx-changer/).
Once defined/integrated in Bacula, I can't label the tapes,
bacula-director crashes.

That's what "=" means. (Except when it mean "assignment", which makes no sense in this context.)
