Hi all,

DVD+RW formatting again.. While DVD+RW media don't have to be formatted 
before rewriting, they *must* be formatted before using the first time.

wodim's man page says it will be done automatically, but it is not 
correct and burning fails when medium is not formatted before. More 
about this bug is in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=519465

The attached file is a patch, that works at least for me 
(auto-formatting of DVD+RW works now).

If you won't find any issues in the patch, it can be applied to the source.

Cheers,

Honza
