Bug 83981 – cdcat doesn't work

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Description Peppe 2005-03-03 10:43:50 UTC]

I did "emerge cdcat" and then I ran cdcat as user. This is what I get:

Error: Bad Option: '-di'

unmaintained, website is dead, candidate for removal

[Comment 2 Robin Johnson 2005-03-13 01:50:11 UTC]

mholzer: you were the last to update this package, please consider this bug.

[Comment 3 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) 2005-03-13 22:32:08 UTC]

I vote remove.

Here's a quick patch (sorry, can't attach it atm).

marty, please either remove this package from portage due to loss of maintenance upstream, or apply robin's patch.

[Comment 6 Peppe 2005-04-02 11:45:56 UTC]

Oh but I thought it was this cdcat: http://cdcat.sourceforge.net/ but I think they're different projects...
