<0> that was probably made/added by whoever maintains the cdrecord package for your distro or something
<1> That's from linuxcommand.org
<0> oh
<0> well, this is what it says on the dvdrecord homepage:
<2> a debate and no time to participate...
<0> dvdrtools is a fork of cdrtools, with the primary goals of remaining 100% Free Software (dvdrtools is a fork of the last version of cdrtools without any "you are not allowed to modify this section" comments), and adding support for DVD-R/DVD-RW drives and media.
<3> sin, what's your distro?
<0> meow-: i use slackware, debian, ubuntu and gentoo currently
<3> what's your numero uno
<0> trying to get dvd burning to work on the debian box (only system with a dvd burner)
<0> i don't have one
<3> :(
<3> cuzwhy?
<0> cuz they each have characteristics i've become accustomed to and fit into their own specific roles well
<3> don't you find the slackware system difficult to maintain ?
<0> systems* :)
<0> not particularly
<3> I mean .. do you only have "official" packages installed ?
<3> i.e. those for which the slackware team emits patches
<3> and packages to begin with
<0> lynx www.slackware.com/pub/linux/slackware/slackware-current or whatever and dl the packages i need and installpkg *.tgz
<0> nah, most of the stuff isn't prepackaged on the slackware machines
<0> i mean
<0> not the stuff i install anyway
<3> I mean .. don't you need to make your own packages ?
<0> what?
<0> heh
<0> you can build your own packages from source if you prefer (i usually do)
<3> erh .. say .. you need .. <some program> .. this particular program is not "supported" by the slackware team so they don't have "official" packages nor will they have patches for this software (obviously)
<0> either to upgrade functionality or performance or fix bugs & security flaws
<3> so let's say you grab the source
<3> checkinstall .. or something
<3> how do you maintain these packages ?
<3> since the slackware team doesn't emit patches.. you have to keep track of the evolution of each "unsupported" (so to speak) software
<3> to make sure stuff is up to date etc.
<0> well... if i hear/think of something i want to do with them and they can't do it, i upgrade
<0> or if i hear of a vulnerability
<3> what if you don't hear of a vulnerability ? what if you have 30 or so such packages installed .. trying to be on the look-out for bugs in 30 packages .. erh
<0> generally i just use rkhunter and upgrade stuff when i hear of new releases or bugfixes
<3> oki
<3> laters
