Cedar Backup 2.13.1 Released
Cedar Backup v2.13.1 has been released. This release contains one
bug fix to the DVD writer functionality.
I have been chasing a problem for a while now where growisofs would
refuse to write a new initial session to a DVD that already contained
data. I thought I had fixed it several times. It turns out that
growisofs WILL overwrite a disc that contains data -- but just not when
running from cron. Aaargh! The solution is to pass -use-the-force-luke=tty,
so growifs ignores its tty check and overwrites the disc anyway. What
a pain.
As usual, you can find the changelog here:

Debian package from their favorite Debian mirror.
