I can understand your disappointment. If you look at the changes in 2.1.5-5 though, you'll see that most of it relates to the Debian packaging rather than the upstream code. As this was a QA non-maintainer upload I felt it was inappropriate to change the package feature-wise. > Upstream posted the patch on their website and said that if they ever > make a new release they would apply the patch, but the likelyhood of > ever bothering to make a new release is very low, so if the debian > developers don't apply the patch, it probably will never get applied. Fair point. cdtool is currently orphaned in Debian but it could really do with a caring maintainer who is familiar with it's code. You seem to fit that description quite well, how about it? :-) Cheers Max -- Max Vozeler <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://hinterhof.net/~max GnuPG B7CDA2DC : 308E 81E7 B979 63BC A0E6 ED88 9D5B D511 B7CD A2DC
