To state this very first: I have no personal opinion about the probles you are referring to, in fact, if mkisofs is really "better", I also think the "better" software should be used, without know any background of the problem why it is not in Debian currently. But: Please don't make the FAI buglog a place for discussions and flamewars about why an upstream package is replaced with another one! This bug is about the proven fact that mkisofs is currently only a transitional package in Debian, and is to be replaced with the gniosimage package, which you call defective. If you want, please mail me personally, or the FAI developers mailing list, and if we, the FAI team, as mkisofs users, believe you are in the "right position" we will support your call in form of other possible actions around the mksisofs and genisoimage packages, but not in the FAI buglog.
