Well, yeah, schily's idiosyncrasies are rather famous. :-) =46wiw, Ivo, you could always submit a slave-port to cdrtools (or even a=20 completely new port) that uses those patches and produces a cdrtools-redhat= =20 package, which CONFLICTS with cdrtools. That package could act as a drop-in= =20 replacement for cdrtools for anyone who really wants it and the rest of the= =20 world would never get it, which is probably in schily's best interest as we= ll=20 (as he's mostly annoyed by supporting code he didn't write). =2D-=20 ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | lofi@freebsd.org (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org --nextPart5866646.8ET04ZvtvD Content-Type: application/pgp-signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQBCGq6/Xhc68WspdLARAhw5AJ9/kRl5lyxY5owPC/pyVjZHdwA5twCcC+Hs H7s5y7wikJqfaLPSK6Etx9Y= =MJMR -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nextPart5866646.8ET04ZvtvD--
