Debian, and only debian afaik, ships cdrkit these days. Just don't let Joerg hear about this conversation - he is adamant that the license is OK and that any distro can use cdrtools just like all his other code. Joerg maintains that cdrkit is essentially unmaintained, is feature incomplete and does not place nice with other packages. Investigation seems to bear him out, so for that reason I would suggest that LPI not examine the cdrkit fork and keep the objectives relevant to cdrtools. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com _______________________________________________ lpi-examdev mailing list [email protected] http://list.lpi.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lpi-examdev
