It seems that cdrtools and dvdrtools both install a bunch of binaries in the same location, which can lead to package conflicts. For instance, I've had cdrtools installed for some time, but I recently bought a DVD burner, so I emerged dvdrtools. The dvdrtools version of "readcd" overwrote the one from cdrtools, and now when I try to launch xcdroast, I get the following: ** WARNING **: Invalid readcd version 1.11a15 found. Expecting at least version 1.11a34 Start xcdroast with the -n option to override (not recommended!) Two packages really shouldn't install binaries to the same location; there should probably be a block or something on the two packages. The versions installed on my system: app-cdr/cdrtools-2.01_alpha14 app-cdr/dvdrtools-0.1.5 app-cdr/xcdroast-0.98_alpha13 (some of those are a bit out-of-date now, but it looks like little has changed in the ebuilds.) Here are the binaries which seem to be in conflict: /usr/bin/cdda2wav /usr/bin/readcd /usr/bin/devdump /usr/bin/isodump /usr/bin/isoinfo /usr/bin/isovfy Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:
You can try a newer version of the cdrtools with the dvdr-USE-flag set. Furthermore I'll change the dvdrtools-package so that it provides virtual/cdrtools. Then xcdroast can use any of both tools.
Changes commitet. May you test, if this is still an issue?
Closing, as the handling of cdrtools and dvdrtools has changed. There is now a cdrtools-virtual and one of the both apps will be declared as a blocker.
