Dimitris,

   Ah, so. I ran as root with the -n option and it worked with no problems.

   Interesting. It's been long enough that I don't recall if I used alpha15
or alpha16 the last time I used it. Actually, for several years I used the
command line and avoided xcdroast completely.

   Do you think this incompatibility and the cdrtools/cdrkit situation will
be resolved soon? Just curious.

Many thanks,

Rich
