mkisofs is the actively maintained original software.
It makes no sense to advertize for defective forks like genisoimage
that are based on obsolete code.
Look into the debian bug tracking system to find a list of genisoimage bugs
that are not present in the original.
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.
Thanks for your understanding,
Henning
