Description Francois Marier 2007-10-13 13:37:59 UTC 
Version:           1.0.3 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

Anton Khirnov <wyskas@gmail.com> has noticed that K3b reports success in a case where it should report an error.  Here is what he wrote on the Debian tracker (http://bugs.debian.org/446471):

When I try to format a dvd-rw, that is mounted and cd'ed into, k3b
reports success, even though formatting fails and log reports
umount: Device is busy

I also have dvdrw's of which k3b says they do not have to be formatted and they can not be rewritten, though they where only written once.
Comment 2 markuss 2010-03-16 16:04:37 UTC 
In an attempt to clean up old bugs that are not valid for K3b 2.0 (=KDE SC 4.x port) anymore, this is now being marked as UNMAINTAINED.
If this bug is still valid for 2.0, please reopen it.
