An update to this problem:Perhaps the barcode device has different ownership/permissions/group than the rest of the devices? I don't have a barcode reader device so I'm just throwing out possiblities...
When I run amanda as root user this does not happen.
I wonder why, amanda user has all rights on tape devices and loader device (it is in sys group). It is also the owner of configuration, debug, log and so on directories, the "amanda" group is allowed to execute every single binary from amanda directory.
Again, it does work when no barcode reading is involved, what is so special in chg-scsi to require root rights when it has to access barcode reader ?
