Sorry, I didn't notice your message until you update this package. Feel free to adopt this package.

Since the maintainer @fitu996 hasn't logged in in a year but had previously left a comment asking for co-maintainers I made the decision to short circuit the usual 2 week wait time on orphan requests and just added @flan_suse directly as a co-maintainer. I hope this is agreeable.

If @fitu996 wants me to adopt the package, I can. If I only need to worry about one package on the AUR, it's not a big deal.

dvdisaster happens to be a unique software with an under-appreciated (yet highly important) use-case.

I value archiving and preserving data into future generations, and tools like dvdisaster and M-Disc media are crucial in this regard. I've been archiving a lot of irreplaceable data and memories, so this type of software is very important to keep alive and updated.

I made an updated version of the PKGBUILD to reflect the new upstream website, the new version (0.79.9), and included a few comments for future package maintainers. It builds correctly, installs correctly, and I was able to use dvdisaster 0.79.9 to create augmented ECC (RS03) on some new archival discs!

Here is the PKGBUILD I updated. Hopefully it can be used. I don't mind adopting this package, but I've been fairly busy in my own life.
