okay, i grabbed the latest release of cdrdao, mainly because it has direct support for atapi burning

i do the usual ./configure and i get no errors

then i issue make... it goes for a while then errors out at:
Making all in dao
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/sandeep/cdrdao-1.1.8/dao'

it is apparently a gcc error (a problem with the way slackware has it built) since there is an option that is not recognized

i have also tried using make CC=gcc to use gcc instead of CC, but the same error occurs

has anyone been able to compile cdrdao 1.1.8?

doesn't look like a gcc error at all. you just don't appear to have libscg installed from the bit that says "cannot find -lscg"

eh, tried way too soon; slackware has already made a package for cdrdao 1.1.8

it seems that the libscg stuff was removed when i removed the old cdrdao 1.1.7, but now everything works

thx
