cdrtools-2.01a28 ready
Please have a look at the German open Source Center BerliOS at www.berlios.de
BerliOS will continue to support free hosting of cryptography projects even
when US laws change and don't allow to host cryptography projects in the USA.
Also look at sourcewell.berlios.de, the first Open Source announcement service
that itself is implemented as Open Source project.

NEW features of cdrtools-2.01a28:
All:
Libparanoia (Ported by Jörg Schilling, originated by Monty xiphmont@mit.edu):
Libedc (Optimized by Jörg Schilling, originated by Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):
Libscg:
- Enhanced max # of SCSI busses to 256 for the Linux sg driver.
This was needed because of the (compared to Solaris) suboptimal
way of dealing with instance numbers on Linuux.
While Solaris keeps a data base with instance numbers, disconnecting and
reconnecting a USB drive results in the USB device getting the same
SCSI address as before.
As Linux does not have such a data base, disconnecting/reconnecting
a USB device has the unfortunate side effect of assigning a new and
different SCSI address with every USB connect. This also creates problems
when software likes to manage access rights to devices for non-root
users.
- Win32 SPTI interface now also supports controlers with more than one
SCSI Bus. Thanks to Richard Stemmer
Rscsi:
- README.rscsi typo's corrected.
Cdrecord:
- Better man page & online help for the ts= option.
- Fixed a typo in the man page.
- Better error messages when audio size is < 300 Sectors or needs padding.
Thanks to a hint from Stafano Allrath
- cdrecord -scanbus now checks for 256 SCSI busses
Cdda2wav (By Heiko Eißfeldt heiko@hexco.de):
Readcd:
- Better man page & online help for the ts= option.
Scgcheck:
Mkisofs (By Jörg Schilling and James Pearson j.pearson@ge.ucl.ac.uk):
- Default to System ID "UNIX" for unknown platforms instead of
uning LINUX.
- Support System ID "SCO-OPENSERVER" and "SCO-UNIXWARE"
- Better error message when a user tries to create a multi session image
out of a multi-volume image.
- When doing malloc(), include Null Byte at end of TRANS_TBL data to
avoid memory size conflicts.
- Fix for a core dump caused by a double free() when doing:
echo bar >/tmp/bar
echo foo/bar=/tmp/bar > /tmp/pathlist
env LD_PRELOAD=libumem.so.1 UMEM_DEBUG=default UMEM_LOGGING=transaction \
mkisofs -hfs -graft-points -o /tmp/foo.raw -path-list=/tmp/pathlist
Thanks to Jürgen Keil jk@tools.de
- Fixed a typo in write.c "Padbock" -> "Padblock"
Thanks to Richard Dawe <rich@phekda.gotadsl.co.uk>
- Trying to fix a problem with comparing relaxed ISO-9660 file names
that contain a ';' which normally is a separator for the ISO-9660
version number. The fix is in hash.c, please test!
TODO:
- read Joliet filenames with multi-session if no TRANS.TBL
or RR is present. I am looking for a volouteer for this task!
Note that this can never be 100% correct as there is no relation
between the names on the master (UNIX) filesystem, the ISO-9660
names and the Joliet names. Only the Rock Ridge names are
untranslated with respect to the original files on the
master (UNIX) filesystem.
- add libecc/edc for CDI and similar.
CYGWIN NT-4.0 NOTES:
To compile on Cygwin32, get Cygwin and install it.
For more information read README.win32
The files are located on:
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/cdrecord/alpha ...
NOTE: These tar archives are 100% POSIX compatible. GNU tar may get some
minor trouble. If you like a 100% POSIX compliant tar, get star from
ftp://ftp.berlios.de/pub/star/
WARNING: Do not use 'winzip' to extract the tar file!
Winzip cannot extract symbolic links correctly.
