Just like you have been told before in the other thread a few months ago, people are just covering their asses, there is a big number of distros using cdrkit so in case of doubt just use what everyone else uses. >> And if the problem wouldn't exist, then the distributors incl. the Arch >> developers wouldn't have any doubts and would switch from cdrkit to >> cdrtools.

Lawyers are expensive and smaller distros like Arch can't afford to spend money on lawyers because of someone else's quarrel. "Because I say so" is not a valid backup for your claims, Earth used to be flat and the center of the universe because the "experts" of that time "said so". This behavior gets people mad at you and invariably leads to the same result, which is, keep distributing cdrkit. If you want to change that, concede to what people ask of you. If you had done that already most probably we wouldn't be having this huge déjà vu thread. -- Mauro Santos
