Details

Description:
libcdio 0.81 introduced a bug which causes segfaults in applications that have libcdio as a dependency when no optical drive is attached.

Additional info:
bug is in libcdio 0.81 only, 0.80 was fine.
The bug is described here: http://www.nabble.com/0.81-build-trouble-td21216745.html

The fix is a one liner, it is here: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=libcdio.git;a=commit;h=7c497a2c735b695cdbedc3cfb80348bad847ba00

Steps to reproduce:
Run the xbmc-svn AUR on any architecture with libcdio0.81 and no optical drive. The application builds fine but seg faults after startup.

libcdio 0.80 was fine. The patch will be in libcdio 0.82 when it is eventually released, but in the meantime pretty please can we have a patched libcdio 0.81?
This task depends upon
