Package: dvd+rw-tools Version: 7.1-3 Severity: minor Hi,
I know that growisofs does not need to format disk, but I've got a cheap DVD-recorder that is not doing it job properly, so I have to do the formatting myself. However, I noticed that the formatting stopped at 61.7%, as shown below. From it, you can see that I did tried several times. Moreover, the last run was on another (brand-new) DVD+RW. Disks from the same packages had always been working fine before (without formatting). Is this normal?
