Package: mp3burn Severity: normal Your package currently depends on "wodim" and the transitional "cdrecord" package, which solely provides a symlink from the name cdrecord to wodim.
Could you please change the dependency to only refer to "wodim" (including any command lines, since the symlink will no longer be available). There is no use in depending on cdrecord, if you could just change the command from /usr/bin/cdrecord to /usr/bin/wodim directly. Do not trust Joerg Schillings claim that original cdrecord will be available in Debian again. He has no authority to do this claim, it is just his wishful thinking as the main cdrecord author. There is still some _doubt_ on the licensing of the newer cdrecord versions and therefore there is little chance that his software will return. Instead the future probably is along the lines of libburnia, which is a completely independent project. Apart from definitely resolving the legal issues that MAY affect cdrecord (I write "MAY" and "doubt" since any claim that they actually exist will only trigger a flame war by Joerg), they do have newer features and and active development community. And of course, there is a maintainer "compatible" with upstream, which does not seem to apply to "cdrecord" ... There is a wrapper that seems to be largely cdrecord compatible called "cdrskin". On the long run, it might be interesting to allow both wodim and cdrskin (and thus libburnia) to perform the actual burning. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.35-rc6-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
