I cannot vouch for your library /drive, but bacula certainly should work
with them. Changer must work with mtx command in Linux (or apparently chio
in bsd). That is how tape changes are done by bacula.

Bacula certainly provides that core functionality you described.

You will want to use the bacula project repo to get your binaries, not the
system provided repos. Just so you know, on rocky Linux 9 I had to enable
deprecated sha1 hash function in the package manager because the bacula
binaries are hashed by sha1, even the recent ones like 13.0.3 (I think I'm
getting that version number right)

Hopefully the bacula developers start hashing their binaries with sha256 /
sha512 so such configuration change is no longer necessary.
