When I try to copy DL DVD with k3b, process fails with following error message: "Growisofs >= 5.20 is needed to write Double Layer DVD+R" emerge -pv k3b: ... [ebuild R ] app-cdr/k3b-1.68.0_alpha3 USE="dvd encode flac mad vorbis wav (-aqua) -debug -emovix -ffmpeg -lame -musicbrainz -sndfile -sox -taglib -vcd" ... growisofs -version: * growisofs by <appro@fy.chalmers.se>, version 7.1, front-ending to mkisofs: mkisofs 2.01 is not what you see here. This line is only a fake for too clever GUIs and other frontend applications. In fact, this program is: genisoimage 1.1.9 (Linux) Also in Settings -> Configure k3b -> Programs is displayed 7.1 as version of growisofs. Last time I checked 7.1 >= 5.20 evaluated as TRUE so this is probably some kind of bug. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Try to copy DL DVD. Actual Results: Fails Expected Results: Copy DVD
Same behaviour here: #emerge -pv k3b ... [ebuild R ] app-cdr/k3b-1.68.0_alpha3 USE="dvd encode ffmpeg flac mad musicbrainz vorbis wav (-aqua) -debug -emovix -lame -sndfile -sox -taglib -vcd" 0 kB
Try with app-cdr/k3b-1.70.0_beta1 as app-cdr/k3b-1.68.0_alpha3 isn't in Portage anymore.
Ah, found this from ChangeLog, * Burning double-layer DVDs should be possible again (214115) Please reopen if it doesn't work.
