This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
The problem is still present in F8, I have changed the version accordingly.

Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Wodim os known to have no peoper DVD sopport. Please just upgrade to recent original software from: ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/ cdrecord supports DVD writing since February 1998 and for this reason is mature and knows how to work around formware bugs from various drives. A workaround for the formware bug in your PIONEER drive has been introduced in April 2007 in the original software. ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/
Am I allowd to extract the patch from the CDDL version and apply it to the GPL version? I don't think so.
You are of course not allowed to do that, but why do you like to put parts of the official free software into your fork that cannot be legally distributed because your fork is in conflict with GPL and Copyright?
Need more info.Did this ever get fixed? Or is this EOL?
I cannot see any maintenance effort at RedHat since many years, so do not expect a change. RedHat is driven by people that follow anti-social claims from Debian without asking lawyers. Things may change after RedHat comes back to the OpenSource community.
