Package: k9copy
Version: 2.3.7-1

When using k9copy to backup a dvd into an iso dvd image, the operation fails
if none of wodim or k3b are present on the system. This comes from the fact
that, eventhough no physical dvd is actually burnt, the
src/core/k9burndvd.cpp program checks the availability of either k3b or the
two cdrkit programs genisoimage AND wodim. Absent k3b and wodim,
k9burndvd.cpp performs a hard coded call to mkisofs, which is absent from
the squeeze and above debian repositories.

Installing either wodim or k3b solves the issue.

As the featur of backing up to an iso image seems quite often used, I would
suggest that the package provides a recommends on wodim or k3b, probably in
that order as wodim is much lighter than k3b.

I am using Debian Wheezy.

BTW, thanks again for packaging this program in debian.
