Cdrdao is no longer actively maintained (the last feature
enhancement was 3 years ago).


Cdrdao uses an extremely old libscg variant and if you care about
cdrdao, this libscg needs to be updated with recent original
software from:

ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha/

Note that you cannot use the library from cdrtools fork distributed 
by readhat as this fork is in conflict with GPL and Copyright and cannot 
be legally distributed. The original software however has been approved
by Sun legal as free software without known legal problems.

BTW: Another reason for not using the fork is that the fork is not
actively maintained since nearly two years and as the fork is full 
of well documented bugs.
