I had the problem described in this bug: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61566 Basically, the ebuild of app-cdr/cdrtools-2.01_alpha37 was messed up, and then it was fixed. But the fixed ebuild was not given a different version number, so Portage never updated it. I never noticed until I went to burn a CD today and it didn't work. Could you make this ebuild version 2.01_alpha37-r1 or something, so that Portage will indicate that it needs to be updated? Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Try to run any binary file from cdrtools (cdrecord, cdda2wav, etc.) 2. It won't work. 3. emerge cdrtools (since the ebuild was fixed) 4. It works.

Nah, the ebuild is still in testing. These things happen. Just remerge to get the fix.
