This is great news - this is the package that bitbake gpephone-image 
fails on currently.  Any chance that somebody could generate the proper 
bitbake recipe for the 1.0 version?  I tried (and failed) - the patch 
doesn't apply if you just copy 0.1 to 1.0 (which isn't as stupid as it 
sounds - that's what the librecord_1.0.bb recipe is, an exact copy of 
librecord_0.1.bb - I diff'd them) - removing the reference to the patch 
fails for a different reason (missing libs and such).

Sorry to <again> fall into the stupid user category.  At least I know my 
place :)

Thank you,
Josh
