eject and setcd: What are the desired relationships?
The current situation, at least with testing is that each of those 2 packages
ignores the other one. However it looks to me that setcd complements eject.
In short, what are the desired suggests/depends and so on between those two?
[3:02:49 tmp]$ grep-available -s Description -P eject
Description: ejects CDs and operates CD-Changers under Linux
This little program will eject CD-ROMs (assuming your drive supports
the CDROMEJECT ioctl). It also allows setting the autoeject feature,
currently supported by a number of the Linux CD-ROM drivers. See the
documentation in /usr/src/linux/Documentation for more information on
the autoeject feature.
.
On supported ATAPI/IDE multi-disc CD-ROM changers, it allows changing
the active disc.
[03:04:50 tmp]$ grep-available -s Description -P setcd
Description: Control the behaviour of your cdrom device
This program allows you to control the behaviour of your Linux cdrom
player. You'll need a cdrom device that complies to the new interface
defined in linux/Documentation/cdrom/cdrom-standard.tex. For
kernel 2.0 this is only the cm206 drive, for kernel 2.1 this
includes IDE and SCSI drives.
.
You can control: auto close, auto eject, medium type checking and
tray locking. You can get information on the volume name of cdroms
and other data, and you can set the speed of your drive and choose a
disc from a jukebox.
.
In order to fully exploit the possibilities, you'll need libc6 and a
recent version of the the linux kernel, but you will get decent error
behaviour in return. Expect a message "No medium found" if you
attempt to mount an empty drive or "Wrong medium type" if you try to
mount an audio disc, instead of a whole load of kernel error
messages.
.
The source of this package may be an example for cdrom player program
developers that wish to exploit the features of the new cdrom
interface.
