OpenSUSE have silently dropped cdrtools from base:system. Jorge Schilling
Thanks for raising this. How stupid!
Base:System was just cleaned from non-opensuse factory related packages, cdrtools could have stayed.
Both wodim and cdrtools now have a new home in multimedia:apps. The cleanup of base:system makes sense, and dvd-writers are not exactly at the base of the system.
was involved in a dispute with a debian packager and somehow, most probably where the egos come in, this blew up into a dispute with all the major distributions. I'm of a very strong opinion that users shouldn't suffer because of politics but I need bug reports to get my point through about cdrtools.
True (if you put egos and politics in the same bucket). Dropping it is no option. Moving it is much more appropriate. cheers, JW- -- o \ Juergen Weigert paint it green! __/ _=======.=======_ <V> | jw@suse.de back to ascii! __/ _---|____________\/ \ | 0911 74053-508 __/ (____/ /\ (/) | _____________________________/ _/ \_ vim:set sw=2 wm=8 SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, J.Guild, F.Immendoerffer, HRB 16746 (AG Nuernberg), Maxfeldstrasse 5, 90409 Nuernberg, Germany SuSE.
