So where does the conflicting file come from? ..for a45 I dunno, for 2p3 most likely the old (June 2006) cdrecord version, both these boxes are Sid, a45 is my conflict finder and main workstation, 2p3 is a _noisy_ old server box I use for FlightGear cvs stunts. ..a wee bit of dpkg brutality will fix it though, but you will wanna automate that fix and a chk for it, trivial for us but might scare off newbies. > And what exactly fails to burn a CD? How? Any error messages? ..a45 upgraded to wodim fine from cdrecord, but wodim would not burn from the k3b gui on a45 when I reported this conflict, cdrecord burned a cd fine from k3b on 2p3, but honked the conflict horn on it's first update since June, which is why-n-when I filed this conflict bug. ..I'll need to try burn another cd, and then file a bug for that no-burn problem, if it remains, I don't see any relation between these 2 bugs, just a likely trivial failure on wodim where cdrecord used to work, might be some dirty wee trick. -- ..med vennlig hilsen = with Kind Regards from Arnt... ;o) ...with a number of polar bear hunters in his ancestry...
