You didn't quite understand what I stated before, growisofs is an independent binary from the package "dvd+rw-tools"
# whereis growisofs
growisofs: /usr/bin/growisofs /usr/bin/X11/growisofs /usr/share/man/man1/growisofs.1.gz

# rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/bin/growisofs
dvd+rw-tools-7.1-42.1.x86_64

Looking at the package I see it has a patch to enable it to call wodim's genisoimage, I'll remove the patch and the package will be 
available in home:plater in the morning, your summer time is the same as our's GMT+2.00 I think. I think, from reading the dvd+rw-tools web 
page, that you should be able to remove dvd+rw-tools and k3b will only use cdrtools's cdrecord and growisofs direct and not via growisofs. 
The contraversial replacements for cdrtools are wodim's (cdrtool equivalent in brackets) wodim (cdrecord) and genisoimage (mkisofs). The 
problem atm is k3b requires dvd+rw-tools which hasn't changed since 2008.

My cdrtools package was broken so please update to the latest version, it's finished building and should be published (available) in a few 
hours. The version to look for is "cdrtools-3.00-23.2", cdrtools is a dummy package to require the correct rpms and remove the conflicting
ones. All the programs listed as "3.00" in k3b's setup are from the cdrtools package. Another tip, because I have kde from the 
KDE:Distro:Factory repository I use the k3b from there as well and the only part needed from Packman is k3b-codecs as long as the versions 
match.
We'll get to the bottom of your problem.
