Tags: patch Without following the discussion in detail, since life is too short, I will note only that a cursory web search reveals people having this problem at least as far back as 2008, and being advised to use a symlink, config option, command line option, command alias, etc, to force wodim to check /dev/sr* devices. I consider that such actions should only be necessary in unusual cases; while peculiar situations may exist (I don't know if they do or not) in which scanning for /dev/sr* may be undesirable, with a vanilla setup it is not only desirable but necessary, and resorting to reconfiguration should be a step required only in the unusual cases.
Based on the statement (source forgotten) that there is supposed to be a one-to-one correspondence between /dev/sr* and /dev/scd*, I submit the attached trivial patch against cdrkit-1.1.11-3 to make it scan for both. -- Pigeon Be kind to pigeons - - Pigeon's Nest: http://pigeonsnest.co.uk/ GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x21C61F7F
