10 If there's nothing actually broken with xcdroast, why remove it? It
11 does provide a cd-burning app for those who want something with few
12 dependencies. Are there other CD-burning apps that don't depend on qt
13 or gtk2?gre

15 hmm; I notice it wants cdrecord-prodvd for dvd writing - will it not
16 use the newer app-cdr/cdrtools to support DVDs (perhaps with the -n
17 option to not check the tool version)? Presumably the newer cdrtools
18 is backwards-compatible with the cdrecord-prodvd command line options?
