Newest version released June 17, 2024. 2.01a31 was a major bugfix release. Might be worthwhile to upgrade. 
| Quote: | About:
cdrtools (formerly cdrecord) creates home-burned CDs with a CDR/CDRW recorder. It works as a burn engine for several applications. It supports CD recorders from many different vendors; all SCSI-3/mmc- and ATAPI/mmc-compliant drives should also work. Supported features include IDE/ATAPI, parallel port, and SCSI drives, audio CDs, data CDs, and mixed CDs, full multi-session support, CDRWs (rewritable), TAO, DAO, RAW, and human-readable error messages. cdrtools includes remote SCSI support and can access local or remote CD writers.
Release focus: Minor feature enhancements
Changes:
The clone option was documented in the man page. cdda2wav/readcd -scanbus now works correctly readcd and gives a summary of defective sector numbers at the end. The mkisofs -H/-L/-P options were marked as reserved by POSIX, and mkisofs was sped up for very long pathological directories (all filenames need to be renamed for 8.3). |

| It was back when I used to just update everything in portage, so I'd just do "emerge world" and let it work - I don't do that anymore and tend to be wary of alpha stage software - especially when it involves low level hardware access.

| I don't know why they keep calling it "alpha". If you burn CDs in Linux you use cdrecord "alpha".

It won't even read discs anymore - even as a raw device
