Bugzilla Automation <[email protected]> has asked [email protected] for maintainer-feedback: Bug 240273: sysutils/k3b has misleading pkg-message https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=240273
--- Description --- Hi, I have been burning optical media on FreeBSD since last decade, and I got quite frustrated lately when sysutils/k3b-kde4 got deprecated, as I couldn't figure out how to make sysutils/k3b work. I also couldn't find any resources around the 'net. It turns out that (at least for burning mp3s to CDs) it's as simple as setting cdrecord parameters in "Settings --> Configure k3b... --> Programs --> User Parameters" to match device as seen by `cdrecord -scanbus' (e.g. dev=3,0,0). In my case, it also turns out that setuid and usermount requirements are not needed, while being quite dangerous - people with little understanding of OS security tend to "overdo" them, giving full rw access to anything under /dev, as seen e.g. here: https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/unable-to-copy-a-cd-with-k3b-19-08-0-under-f reebsd-12-0-release-p10-mate-desktop.72115/ Perhaps pkg-message could be updated? I have attached proposed patch.
