Just a notification: Debian and Ubuntu are going to removal **ALL** CDDL licensed materials from their distribution, stating that the license is non-free and "illegal" (not GPL compatible).

The sane way is to remove cdrtools from Debian main (unstable) and add a free replacement, most possible a fork from the last free version (which had only the CDDL licensed build scripts, which can easily be replaced by some automake thing). If you want to join that effort - contact me. For Debian etch I dont think its a big problem right now, dependencies will stop it from getting removed before we release. -- bye Joerg Some NM:
