What Fedora version are you using?  The FC3 cdrecord package supports
dvd+/-rw formatting/blanking.  You might try installing FC3 versions of
cdrecord, dvd+rw-tools, mkisofs, etc.  Hopefully there won't be too many
dependencies.  I suggest this because the version displayed below looks
like a pre-FC3 version number.  I have blanked/rewritten a number of DVD
+RW discs using FC2 & FC3.  And I have not had the need to install the
prodvd version of cdrecord.
