As I've said before, if Fedora doesn't like the license which comes with 
cdrecord, they should leave it out and not put in a different package with the 
same name. The morality of putting out an ersatz product who's problems are 
attributed by users to the genuine software is pretty damn poor.

It's a "Dummy transition package for wodim" because they think anyone who 
doesn't notice it's not the real deal is a dummy, maybe?
