Comment 59 for bug 213215

I'd like to ask, why on every Fedora system I install I have to manually install cdrecord/mkisofs (since wodim rarely works correctly, often failing to finalize images, etc).

According to the spec file for cdrtools, the cause was some licensing issues.

According to the original author:
http://cdrecord.berlios.de/private/linux-dist.html
Fedora should be free to include cdrtools as an rpm.

What's the problem? Could the decision to drop cdrtools be re-examined? At least make it an optional package?
