readom is a very old version from the program readcd. readcd is a descendent from a 23 year old demo/skeleton program that originally was written to demonstrate the first SCSI pass through driver. Although readcd itself does a lot of error checking and recovery, it was never tested for having a non-zero exit code for all possible fatal errors - although it seems that it correctly exits with non-zero code in n - 2 cases.
While readom is unmaintained since ~2 years, the original software if of course still actively maintained. Please fetch the latest original source from ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/ which currently is 2.01.01a56pre3 and test whether it fixes your problem. Note that dev=/dev/sr0 is an deprecated device syntax that is not granted to work. -- Silent failure when out of /tmp space https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/178774 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
