Dear Maintainer,
In ubuntu, the following bug report was filed:
"""
The eject command does not actually eject my cdrom, unless called as
'eject /dev/cdrom1'
The problem seems to be that the eject command's default device is set
to "/dev/cdrom" specifically. Yet, udev will increment the drive name
if new cdroms are added or even if you change the cable that the cdrom
is connected to. See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=570490. udev now assigns
permanent names to devices in case they're being hotplugged, which
obviously makes sense for servers but a bit sub-optimal for desktops
where you generally have no more than one cd...
"""
A patch has been proposed to address this issue. Please review and
consider applying it.
Regards,
Dmitrijs.
