Package: cdrw-taper
Version: 0.4-1
Severity: important
Tags: patch
MEDIABLOCKS variable set in config file is overwritten by taperlib.pm version
(which is specifiing 700MB CD)
BLOCKSIZE is also overwritted, but I don't assume someone really wants to
modify it ... also, there are places in taperlib.pm which forgots to use it
and assumes 2048 like line "$self->{capacity} = $2 * 2; # in kilobytes!"
