Topic
An updated dvd+rw-tools package that addresses a bug and corrects a typo is
now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The dvd+rw-tools package is a collection of tools to master DVD+RW/+R
media.
- on some systems with manually-operated DVD drive trays (ie drives that
cannot be closed mechanically, such as most slim-line drive trays), burning
data to DVD media would produce an erroneous "Error writing to disk" alert.
The data was, in fact, successfully burnt to the DVD and the newly burnt
DVD was then ejected. The inability of the drive tray to close
mechanically, however, caused dvd+rw-tools to return an "unable to reload
tray" message which, in turn, caused the 'writing to disk' error to
present. With this update, dvd+rw-tools treats the underlying
"START_STOP_UNIT" message properly and, consequently, the misleading alert
does not present. (BZ#390961)
- a typo in the dvd+rw-tools.spec file was corrected. The "%{dist}" tag on
the "Release" line was corrected to "%{?dist}". The correction ensures an
rpm can be built from the dvd+rw-tools source even if a distribution is not
defined in either the Makefile or your local ~/.rpmmacros file. (BZ#440621)
All dvd+rw-tools users should upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves these issues.
