Ubuntu doesn't seem to support raw devices very well any more (fair enough, as they were deprecated quite a while ago), so versions of gddrescue that don't support direct disk access are now a bit useless, as that functionality is supposed to replace the raw device support in gddrescue.
Also note that GNU mirrors don't keep any versions before 1.6 around any more; 1.2 really is obsolete now. -- 2 new upstream versions of ddrescue released on summer 2007, please update Ubuntu packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/133158 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
