Hi Thomas, this problem can either be fixed by patching growisofs as you |
| 33 |
suggest, or by changing k3b to use cdrtools in preference to growisofs - not |
| 34 |
sure if this can be done with a USE flag. The latter seems more reliable to |
| 35 |
me, because Joerg keeps his code up to date, but I don't know enough to make a |
| 36 |
case for either option. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Either way, perhaps the OP should file a quick bug report at |
| 39 |
https://bugs.gentoo.org/ and mention both options as a request. Then the rest |
| 40 |
of us can chime in to encourage the devs to progress this. |
