cdrecord -toc on blank CD-RW exits 0. Intentional ?

[scdbackup@gmx.net]

Hi Joerg,

is it intentional that cdrecord returns exit value 0
after  -toc  failed quite loudly on a blank CD-RW ?

If yes: i am curious about the particular reason.
The exit value on empty tray is 255.


  $ cdrecord -v dev=0,1,0 -toc  && echo "CDRECORD SUCCESS"
