Hi,
As a new user to fink and apple in general, I'm very happy to see that
there's so much activity on developping and porting stuff to the Darwin
system. Thanks for making this Apple stuff more accessable for a BSD/Linux
admin of ten years :-)
I installed cdrecord and cdrdao. Because I have a powerbook/combodrive,
my recorder likes to be called IODVDServices. To set this as a systemwide
default, one can write this into a settings file in /etc/defaults/cdrdao,
which seems to me like a unix default unwanted in a fink environment.
Now, for cdrecord, this file IS /sw/etc/defaults/cdrecord when you install
the package (which is as expected), but cdrdao tries to open them in the
'normal unix' path. Tracing the binaries, I see them opening:
6297 cdrecord NAMI "/sw/etc/default/cdrecord"
6297 cdrecord NAMI "/sw/etc/default/cdrecord"
6297 cdrecord NAMI "/sw/etc/default/cdrecord"
(yes it opens this file three times), but cdrdao tries this:
6291 cdrdao NAMI "/etc/cdrdao.conf"
6291 cdrdao NAMI "/etc/defaults/cdrdao"
6291 cdrdao NAMI "/Users/pim/.cdrdao"
Now for the remark: can the cdrdao package maintainer please explain
a rationale for this behavior, or ultimately have this package open
/sw/etc/defaults/cdrdao at least, so I don't have to put fink config
files in the /etc tree ?
Thanks.
