On that list there was support by Andy Polykov until shortly |
| 8 |
after the bug in question was reported. A fixed release was |
| 9 |
promised but did not emerge. See |

Yep. Until 2007 as user of growisofs. For a short while as |
| 16 |
friendly competitor. Now as its sentinel, so nobody has reason |
| 17 |
to regret having tried burning DVD on Linux. |

The topic came up from a side note on cdrkit's mailing list. |
| 24 |
The Fedora maintainer of growisofs asked whether i know more |
| 25 |
about the problem. I pointed to above post by Andy, re-read it |
| 26 |
and recognized that he left a treasure map to find the bug. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
After getting confirmation that the proposed fix works, i googled |
| 29 |
for similar bug reports in various distros. |

|
| 31 |
An archive of the gentoo-user list was among the found sites. |
| 32 |
My first mail to the list did not show up. So i subscribed a day |
| 33 |
later and sent it again. |

Have a nice day :) |
