mkisofs limits number of levels in a directory hierarchy to 6

[Brian Pitts]

To reproduce:
Create a GnomeBaker project with directories nested to a depth greater than 6.
Deselect the Joliet file system but leave Rock Ridge selected.
Attempt to burn.

Sample output:
Executing 'mkisofs -gui -V Backups -A GnomeBaker -p Brian Pitts -iso-level 3 -l -r -hide-rr-moved -graft-points --path-list /tmp/GnomeBaker-brian/gnomebaker-FE7NOT | builtin_dd of=/dev/hdc obs=32k seek=0'
INFO: UTF-8 character encoding detected by locale settings.
 Assuming UTF-8 encoded filenames on source filesystem,
 use -input-charset to override.
mkisofs: Directories too deep for 'programming/old/HTML/Abandoned/geocities/debateklub/bio/2000-2001' (7) max is 6.
:-( write failed: Input/output error

Rock Ridge should allow the number of levels in a directory hierarchy to exceed 8 according to ftp://ftp.ymi.com/pub/rockridge/rrip112.ps

Your problem is unknown with the original software.
Yur are most likely suffering from a bug introduced
in the inofficial fork you are using.

Please upgrade to a recent original:

this is a problem in cdrkit, not in cdrtools. reassigning to the correct package
