- k3b needs dvd+rw-format to blank dvds. Version 0.11.12 (possibly other versions) can't find dvd+rw-format version 4.10 (possibly other versions), no matter what search path you use. - k3b-0.11.12/src/core/k3bdefaultexternalprograms.cpp apparently tests for the version of dvd+rw-format with the regexp "DVD.*RW format utility". - The output of dvd+rw-format -v starts with the line "* DVD±RW/-RAM format utility by <appro@fy.chalmers.se>, version 4.10." - The regexp might be changed to "DVD.*format utility" or something similar to allow this versoin of dvd+rw-format to be found. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.open k3b with "Settings | Configure k3b | Misc | Check system configuration" checked (must have dvd-rom installed) 2. 3. Actual Results: - an error dialogue pops up saying that it can't find dvd+rw-tools Expected Results: - found dvd+rw-tools in /usr/bin http://webcvs.kde.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/kdeextragear-1/k3b/libk3b/core/k3bdefaultexternalprograms.cpp.diff?r1=1.1&r2= The fix is also backported to the 0.11 branch, so the next version will work. At least this link should work... http://webcvs.kde.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/kdeextragear-1/k3b/libk3b/core/k3bdefaultexternalprograms.cpp The complete solution is given (also) here: http://k3b.plainblack.com/index.pl/feedback?func=view&wid=29&forumId=1000&forumOp=viewThread&forumPostId=101621#101621 Easy fix: make a gentoo-patch that applies when emerged. this is fixed in 0.11.17 |
