At this time, only bweb is using locations.

To add a Location with bweb, you have to go on :
Media -> Locations  -> Add Location (+)

set :
 - Location with your autochanger name
 - Cost to something > 1 (it's not used at this time)
 - Enabled to true

You can define your office, your home, your media vault etc... 
with a cost greater than your autochanger

Yes, but you have to use bweb for this

Can you turn debug to "on" in preferences, retry to add your location, check
error.log apache log, and give me feedback ?

You can use debs-gui on sourceforge, you will have all dependency and
the last version.

No, it's more simple, you just have to associate text/brestore with
brestore.pl on your firefox (open with brestore.pl than remember it)

It's a good idea, it will compute path hierarchy and give you instant access
to all your backups in brestore.

You can use RunAfterJob="brestore.pl -b" for that. 
try it on a terminal before
# replace root by your bacula-dir user
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# brestore.pl -b

Bye
