Cedar Backup v1.13 Released
Cedar Backup v1.13 has been released. This is a maintainence release,
focusing on one bug fix. Guillaume Pothier noticed (in Bugzilla bug #16)
that the capacity code gets screwed up for kernels >= 2.6.8 because of
new warning messages that are printed out by cdrecord.
Here's the official changelog entry:
Version 1.13 25 Jan 2005
* Fix boundaries calculation when using kernal >= 2.6.8 (closes: #16).
* Look for a matching boundaries pattern among all lines, not just the first.
You can get the latest Python source package from this URL:

You can get the latest Debian package from the Cedar Solutions APT
source, or from this URL:
http://cedar-solutions.com/ftp/debian/dists/sarge/binary-i386/admin/cedar-backup/cedar-backup_1.13-1_all.deb
I have tested the modified code on my machine that has a CD-R device.
However, that machine does not run a 2.6 kernel, so it's possible that
something is still subtly broken. The code should be safe (it was
essentially a one-line change), but you should check the logs for your
first backup with the new version just to be sure.
Please write the list or file a bug in Bugzilla if you notice any
problems with this release.
Thanks,
