Ross, cdrdao is part of Debian, but there is a problem with the current version of the source package in the archive that prevents it from building on amd64. There is a patch available in the BTS. If you have an i386 chroot on your system, you can use that to quickly fetch the source, and then apply the patch and build in x86_64 space. Here's what I did to build it: (chroot)$ apt-get source cdrdao (chroot)$ exit $ cd cdrdao-1.1.9 $ wget -q -O - 'http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi/cdrdao-1.1.9-3.0.0.1.amd64.patch?bug=249642&msg=10&att=1' | patch -p0 $ dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -us -uc $ sudo dpkg -i ../cdrdao_1.1.9-3_amd64.deb Cheers, tony -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
