[paranoia-announce] Cdparanoia 9.8 released

[Monty]

Cdparanoia 9.8 is officially ready; I'm in the process of updating
the website right now.  This is not a major update, mostly a number of
fixes to blow off bit-rust and patches that have come in over the past 
year from users. 

General change list: 

      1) Patch for Kenwood TruX drives (they worked before, but were very slow) 
      2) Slightly different default read command to alleviate end-of-track 
      read problems on a number of drives 

      3) New -z command syntax; option argument to allow a skip after a 
      user-configurable number of tries 

      4) Added more possible read commands to autoprobe 

      5) Support for Linux SCSI Generic 3.x interface; dropped support for 
      older (2.0 and previous) kernels 

      6) Removed autoprobe limitation, so starting a new rip will not 
      potentially stall in autoprobe until previous rip finishes 

      7) Segfault fix when device isn't found 

      8) Proper /devfs detection in 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4, with or without devfsd 

      9) Patch to allow sample-granulairy offset 

      10) allow NULL callbacks to be passed to library interface 

Happy hacking, 

Monty
