Rohit Yadav commented on CLOUDSTACK-792:
----------------------------------------
DevCloud2 is Debian Wheezy, mkisofs just does not exist on Wheezy [0] I had to
compile and bundle it in [1].
mkisofs and genisoimage are two different tools belonging to different projects
(mkisofs belongs to cdrtools) and while their functionalities are same to make
isos, they take different args, version specific arg changes is exactly the
issue I'm concerned with; that's why I said mkisofs != genisoimage
Noah, now coming back to the original issue => both should be dealt differently
as in different set of args and build profiles. I'm fine with using both of
them interchangeable, I don't care until it won't break anyone's build
environment.

> make maven use mkisofs or genisoimage depending on what is available

> Key: CLOUDSTACK-792
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-792
> Project: CloudStack
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Security Level: Public(Anyone can view this level - this is the
> default.)
> Reporter: Noa Resare
> Priority: Minor
>
> Due to differing licensing philosophies between the Debian project and the
> mkisofs maintainer the tool will probably never be shipped as part of Debian.
> There is a tool named genisoimage that is command line parameter compatible
> with mkisofs and does the same thing.
> It would be useful to have maven pick this difference up and handle both
> cases.
