Under the existing licensing, cdrtools simply can't be legally
distributed at all. By doing so we are infringing the copyright of
several people. Keeping it in multiverse doesn't help that. The
solutions are either for the libraries and build system to be relicensed
under terms compatible with the GPL (keeping them under the CDDL as well
is perfectly acceptable), for all the other copyright holders to grant
permission for the current licensing or for cdrtools to be removed from
the archive. The latter should be done in any case, until the situation
is resolved.
