Oh, and I remembered I had uploaded the package here:

http://revu.tauware.de/details.py?upid=1688

If you use ubuntu or debian you should be able to build the package with 
pbuilder and install it with dpkg.  Here are the changes I made:


   * Fixed a few assumptions about packet size in cdrwtool that caused
     it to break when using packet sizes other than 32 sectors
   * Set default uid/gid to -1 instead of 0 for file entries created
     by cdrwtool and mkudffs
   * Documented -z ( packet size ) switch for cdrwtool in the man page
   * Added new single argument use case to pktsetup where you only have
     to specify the cdrom device to bind to, and a pktcdvd device will
     be auto assigned.
   * Fixed FORMAT UNIT command used by cdrwtool to comply with MMC-5.
     The old command wasn't quite valid according to MMC-5 and only
     worked on some drives.
