Please sync to cdparanoia 3.10.2+debian-1

[Matthias Urlichs]

1.10.1 crashes on some CDs in my collection.
1.10.2 from Debian compiles cleanly on Intrepid and doesn't die.
There are no ubuntu-specific changes.

Binary package hint: cdparanoia

this is a new upstream version; are there no new features here that warrant a FFe?

[Matthias Urlichs (smurf)]

There is one new "feature" -- a mode to analyze caching behavior of a drive when cdparanoia detects that its internal cache model of that drive is faulty. I'd classify this as a bugfix.

I looked into extracting a "simple" fix for the crash, but the author decided that, in order to fix the bug, some rather extensive changes in error reporting and memory allocation were necessary. In my case, the problem resisted cursory analysis with valgrind and friends, and frankly I refuse to spend too much time fixing an already-fixed bug.

Possibly more troublesome at this stage is Upstream's decision to default to using the kernel's "new" CD reading interface, because the old one is deprecated and may in fact not be compiled into the kernel on some distros. However, I've been running tests with my (too-large) collection of old and new drives over the weekend and didn't find any disk/drive combo that would fail with the new interface.

[Luca Falavigna (dktrkranz)]

cdparanoia is in main, unsubscribing motu-release.

[StefanPotyra (sistpoty)]

ACK #1 from me.

[StefanPotyra (sistpoty)]

oops... heh, yes. indeed, I guess I shouldn't give acks for main packages then *g*.

[Martin Pitt (pitti)]

Ah, it's unfortunate that ubuntu-release was subscribed so late. I would have had no problem with it a month ago, but this kind of update is too intrusive now after the release candidate went out.

So I close this for now. In jaunty it will be picked up by the auto-syncer anyway.
