Details

AFAIK since last udev update /dev/cdrom is deprecated. abcde's standard path for $CDROM is /dev/cdrom. So I request to either patch the default entry in abcde's source or in /etc/abcde.conf to use /dev/sr0 to match the current environment.

Also I kindly ask someone more knowledgeable to report upstream that, obviously, these things are changing.

Additional info:
* abcde-2.4.2-1
This task depends upon

You seem knowledgeable enough to be able to report something like this upstream, but meh, I'll assign it anyway.

...err, after a couple of failed assigning attempts (darn bug interface and your myriad of names). :-P

I looked this up in packaging git. /dev/{cdrom,dvd,cdromX,dvdX} symlinks were part of 81-arch.rules in the first place, so upstream udev seemingly doesn't need to be bugged with this. Umm, that said, I just noticed that since /dev/cd/ has disappeared from what seems upstream config, rendering the script that took care of this stuff useless.

So, still I'm not clear on where to ask? abcde or udev devs?

Arch doesn't ship custom rules for net and cd anymore, we're more vanilla.

Seems like someone already opened a bug report at abcde upstream: http://code.google.com/p/abcde/issues/detail?id=52

As a temporary measure, I will set CDROM=/dev/sr0 in /etc/abcde.conf in abcde 2.4.2-2.

Thanks for reporting!
