If this is not the correct place to address wodim package errors, I'm sorry... will you please forward it on for me or point me in the right direction.<br><br>I cannot get the wodim package to install via apt-get... very strange. I have tried 3 different mirrors including
<a href="http://kernel.org">kernel.org</a> and <a href="http://easynews.com">easynews.com</a>. Also tried testing and unstable, both give the same error. The package name is screwy looking to me, but I don't guess that is the problem.
<br><br>CD recording is, of course, my goal - k3b and xcdroast both require wodim.<br>I've tried loads of stuff including renaming the package and trying to use dpkg -i to get the job done. No dice.<br>I also tried changing permissions on and even removing /usr/bin/readcd, but if that's the issue, it isn't so easliy fixed.
<br>I'm not familiar with package collision under Debian, in fact I never have problems with apt-get / .deb files, so I don't know what to do at this point.<br><br>Any other suggestions?<br><br>Regards,<br>Lin Richardson<br>
