My experience was that Then I cannot understand why FreeBSD still stays with the old version of mkisofs. Stying with the old version means staying with old bugs. > the 2.01.01 alpha series mkisofs didn't always seem > suitable for this purpose, actually even the cdrtools > release notes discouraged its use from time to time. There was a period of less than 6 months starting from August 2006 where I replaced the buggy GNU getopt_long() with my mature getargs() that resulted in replacing 3000 old lines by 1000 new lines and introduced a few temporary incompatibilities. > The other reason is that for over a year now the 2.01.01 > alpha release notes indicate a non-alpha release being > imminent, i.e. it didn't look like we'd use 2.01 for > yet another year: > <...> > NEW features of cdrtools-2.01.01a41: I don't understand - sorry. 2.01 is dead since more than 5 years, I don't recommend to use it anymore since more than 2 years.
