Hi, > However, your patch is for growisofs, which in Gentoo comes from > app-cdr/dvd+rw-tools, so the proper place for such patch would be > <cdwr...@other.debian.org> per http://fy.chalmers.se/~appro/linux/DVD+RW/ --
On that list there was support by Andy Polykov until shortly after the bug in question was reported. A fixed release was promised but did not emerge. See http://lists.debian.org/cdwrite/2008/07/msg00092.html > IIRC you mentioned in another email being subscribed to that list. Yep. Until 2007 as user of growisofs. For a short while as friendly competitor. Now as its sentinel, so nobody has reason to regret having tried burning DVD on Linux. > Just curious...if you don't use Gentoo, why do you subscribe to > gentoo-user list? The topic came up from a side note on cdrkit's mailing list. The Fedora maintainer of growisofs asked whether i know more about the problem. I pointed to above post by Andy, re-read it and recognized that he left a treasure map to find the bug. After getting confirmation that the proposed fix works, i googled for similar bug reports in various distros. An archive of the gentoo-user list was among the found sites. My first mail to the list did not show up. So i subscribed a day later and sent it again. Have a nice day :) Thomas
