Hopefully this info will be helpful to someone.

I'm installing bacula for the first time.  I am using version 1.36.3.  I have a 
HP A4853 DLT Library and a HP DLT7000 drive.  I was able to use the changer to 
load tapes, get the status, etc, but it would not unload the drive.  In this 
situation, I need to issue the command "mt eject" before I could unload the 
drive.  I modified the file mtx-changer to include

MT=mt

(the block for unload is now)


   unload)
#     echo "Doing mtx -f $ctl unload $slot $drive"
#
# enable the following line if you need to eject the cartridge
#     mt -f $device offline
      if test x$slot = x; then
         ${MT} eject
         ${MTX} -f $ctl unload
      else
         $MT eject
         ${MTX} -f $ctl unload $slot $drive
      fi
      ;;


Everything with the changer and drive seems to be working now.  Hope this info 
can help somebody and maybe be incorporated by the developers
