Package: k3b Version: 0.12.17-2+b1 Severity: normal k3b detects that cdrecord and cdrdao do not have suid set and prompts user to change their permissions using k3bsetup (see message below). Is this still necessary? If it is, then perhaps it would be better to suggest using dpkg-reconfigure cdrecord and then seting suid. It's generally better to use debconf for system administration.
Also, is cdrdao really needed any more? Does k3b use it at all? Best, slaven -- cdrecord will be run without root privileges It is highly recommended to configure cdrecord to run with root privileges. Only then cdrecord runs with high priority which increases the overall stability of the burning process. Apart from that it allows changing the size of the used burning buffer. A lot of user problems could be solved this way. This is also true when using SuSE's resmgr. Solution: Use K3bSetup to solve this problem. cdrdao will be run without root privileges It is highly recommended to configure cdrdao to run with root privileges to increase the overall stability of the burning process. Solution: Use K3bSetup to solve this problem. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-powerpc Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages k3b depends on: ii cdparanoia 3a9.8-14 An audio extraction tool for sampl ii kdebase-bin 4:3.5.4-2+b2 core binaries for the KDE base mod ii kdelibs-data 4:3.5.4-3 core shared data for all KDE appli ii kdelibs4c2a 4:3.5.4-3 core libraries and binaries for al ii libacl1 2.2.41-1 Access control list shared library ii libart-2.0-2 2.3.17-1 Library of functions for 2D graphi ii libattr1 2.4.32-1 Extended attribute shared library ii libaudio2 1.8-2 The Network Audio System (NAS).
