This is known as https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/6515.

It's currently blocked, as indicated in comment #2 there, since I was
not able to successfully test monkeyscan in Tails, even with these
dependencies installed. It would be very useful if someone could
confirm that monkeyscan works fine, at least on some other hardware
than mine, in current Tails with python-zbar{,gtk} installed.

Cheers,
