Description Peter J. de Vrijer 2006-07-09 07:06:36 UTC
cdrecord-prodvd is suddenly hard masked for all versions.
Info on the reason for this is nowhere to be found. Nor in
the changelog nor in bugs section. Can someone please
elaborate on the reason for this?
Comment 1 Jakub Moc (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-09 07:10:42 UTC
The reason is written in package.mask. We are not going to maintain redundant stuff, you can use cdrtools for DVD writing.

# Use app-cdr/cdrtools for DVD burning (yes, it can do it now).
