Description Moritz Barsnick 2006-10-09 09:57:05 UTC
Description of problem:
A new version 7.0 of dvd+rw-tools is available. The current SPEC file also has 
some "peculiarities". Please update or test if possible. (Also, be the first 
distribution to support Blu-Ray. ;->)

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
6.1-4.1

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:

  
Actual results:


Expected results:


Additional info:
I know 6.1-2 has never left Updates/testing for FC5, but since 6.1-4.1 is in 
Rawhide/development, please perhaps consider version 7.0.

I'm attaching some suggested enhancements/fixes to the SPEC file as well:
- use new index.html (previous one was from Aug. 2004)
- don't explicitly install the doc, just use the %doc directive
- LICENSE needs to be packaged (AFAIK)
- parallel build is possible

Upstream changelog (grabbed from the included SPEC file):
- Blu-ray Disc support [upon release tested with Panasonic SW-5582]
- Mac OS X 10>=2 support [upon release tested on 10.4 only]
- Linux: copy <linux/raw.h> definitions directly into application
  code in order to secure backward compatibility
- Linux: overcome 16MB O_DIRECT limitaton for NFS client
- limit ring buffer size to 1/4 of RAM
- copy volume descriptors if -C was specified with -M /dev/dvd=image
  [by request from K3b]
- -use-the-force-luke=spare[:none|min] to control blank BD pre-format
  [for finer control use dvd+rw-format]
- some units, e.g. Lite-on SOHW-1693S, seem to fire off OPC already
  upon Layer Break command, therefore longer timeout is required
- Linux: deploy BLKFLSBUF to avoid media reloads when possible
- add unit buffer utilization indicator [by request from K3b]
