Created attachment 198468 [details] Error listing at end of attempt to emerge cdrtools
corrected OS... this occurs on Mac OS X.
Created attachment 198476 [details, diff] cdrtools-prefix.diff Patch to make cdrtools-2.01.01_beta61 install not fail.
Note that the cdrtools build system is severely broken and ignores error messages from the linker. So even though it appears to compile successfully, it might not build all executables.
Well, does it work (runtime) or not with the patch?
installation patch applied, crapware remains crapware even with a nice ebuild.
