Package: cdrw-taper
Version: 0.4-1

After upgrading cdrw-taper to 0.4-1 (Debian testing), all backups fail with:

| *** THE DUMPS DID NOT FINISH PROPERLY!
| | The next tape Amanda expects to use is: DAILY18.
| | FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
|   anakin     /                           RESULTS MISSING
                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|   anakin     /boot                       RESULTS MISSING
                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|   ...
|   driver: FATAL reading result from taper: Connection reset by peer
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

/var/log/amanda/DailySet1/amdump.1 shows:

| FATAL: Can't find system command 'cdrecord' on search path 
('/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin')!
| Can't use string ("0") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at 
/usr/lib/amanda/taper line 48.
| driver: reading result from taper: Connection reset by peer

Cdrecord is installed, but it's not accessible for user backup, because backup
is not a member of the cdrom group:

| [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ls -l /usr/bin/cdrecord
| -rwsr-xr-- 1 root cdrom 133 Jan  7 19:43 /usr/bin/cdrecord
| [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ groups
| backup disk tape
| [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$

Manually adding user backup to the cdrom group fixed the problem.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
