Public bug reported: Description of problem:
Relevant to virtualization / devops / automation, libcdio from 0.83 to 0.90 it cannot read Linux .iso files that use Rock Ridge for file name encoding. With libcdio up to 0.90 iso-read gives bad results for .iso files > 4GB. Relevant to virtualization / devops / automation, some Linux distro images are that large. Steps to reproduce problem: 1. From bug report https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?39373 get most recent file iso-read-test.sh at https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/download.php?file_id=30554 2. Run that file either plain or with a single parameter 5000, such as ./iso-read-test.sh ./iso-read-test.sh 5000 3. At the end of output see a lot of "read DEFECT" where you should see nothing but "read back OK". Actual results: At the end of output see a lot of "read DEFECT". Expected results: You should see nothing but "read back OK". Additional info: There were more than one problems in libcdio 0.90, not just the 4G limit. E.g. Rock Ridge support (often needed for Linux) wasn't compiled in by default. libcdio 0.92 fixes a lot of problems, and has been out for several months, and has been working well so far. Relevant fixes cannot be isolated for patching 0.83. There also is a discussion in docs files at https://github.com/srguiwiz /nrvr-commander/blob/master/docs/which-version-iso-read.txt One example use at https://github.com/srguiwiz/nrvr-commander but this affects any attempt to make virtual machines from distro image .iso files as plain user. An Ubuntu LTS should release with a healthy libcdio 0.92. ** Affects: libcdio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1302241 Title: libcdio should be 0.92 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libcdio/+bug/1302241/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
