It depends on cdrecord-prodvd, which means that it will have to be converted to use the new cdrtools if it's to continue being useful since cdrecord-prodvd is being masked (and some time thereafter, removed).Please keep Xcdroast in Portage: I use it & it has no bugs AFAIK.
Not having recent updates is one thing, but with a dead upstream, there is no place to send security patches or bug fixes or add new functionality as needed, etc. (Unless of course, someone were to fork the current codebase and pick up where they left off.)No recent updates ? -- that applies to many packages in Portage.
There is K3b (a Qt app), Graveman (a GTK2 app), NeroLinux (GTK+ 1.x, non-Free), GnomeBaker (GTK2/GNOME) and probably several others which provide the same functionality yet are actively maintained and supported with a proper upstream.Better tools ? -- please name them & give reasons.
