Bug Description
Binary package hint: wodim
I am running kubuntu 9.10 64bit on an AMD machine. I thing the bug is in wodim 9:1.1.9-1ubuntu2
I tried to burn a 8GB iso file with k3b (I tried this for the first time). Burning started and after approx. 4.2 GB k3b stopped burning with an error message. I checked the error log and got this:
......

I retried burning with the cdrecord from berios (cdrtools-
It is a well known fact that wodim does not support to write DVDs correctly.
With other DVD media types, it may work under some conditions but DVD Dual
layer media does not work at all when using wodim.
This is a result from removing the mature DVD support in the original cdrecord
and replacing this code by something half baken.
It is also a well known fact that wodim was created by some Debian packetizers
as a social attack against the cdrtools project and it is a pitty that Ubuntu supports
this social attack instead of supporting Open Source Software.
In a few weeks, cdrtools-3.0-final will be released and Ubuntu has the chance
to whether Ubuntu is willing to correct a mistake from the past....
