tapeinfo works equally well on non-changer devices. It may not supply
TapeAlert info if the drive is not a newer model.
The %c is in fact correct. tapeinfo works using the control channel. I've
modified bacula-sd.conf so that tapealert won't be automatically turned on if
the user enables a Device, and added a message telling him that he will need
to install the mtx package.
