Working on that now. I've got it building but it still conflicts with
cdrkit because of its "obsoletes/provides" built into the RPM for the old
version of cdrtools. I'm trying to get where I can uninstall the
conflicting cdrkit RPMs and install the new cdrtools RPMs but they provide
different binaries (with the cdrkit binaries being symbolically linked to
the old cdrtools binaries names). I may give up and just install to
/usr/local if it gets to be too much trouble.


But you'll have a bigger problem if you think you can

 Yup, I think the biggest problem is lack of UDF 2.5 write support but I'll
worry about that when I get that far.
