Can you be more specific about the bugs please? Or does that "contain bugs" simply refer to that they're not the latest alpha version? What "security holes" are you talking about? > Unfortunately, SuSE stopped sending free CD sets to developers about > 9 months ago, so it is hard to get hold of these problems.... ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/ seems pretty simple to me. > Also note that for the above reasons, it is always a good idea to compile > cdrtools yourself from official sources in order make sure that you run > an official version. Well, personally I'm interested in something which works, and couldn't care less whether it's "official". Compiling stuff is the responsibility of the distro-maker, that's what I pay for. Obviously I make exceptions, but being "official" is not one of them.
