No, it wouldn't help to post this to the bugs database. In this case, the
error was fatal as it indicates. It was not just a problem with a single tape
but a problem with the drive so Bacula failed the job, which is the way it is
designed to work.
If you want it to send a message to the operator on a fatal error, you must
tell it to do so.
