Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus-cd-burner

In feisty, nautilus-cd-burner 2.18.0-0ubuntu1 depends on the now-obsolete 'mkisofs' package.
I think this should be changed to "genisoimage" for feist (or set "mkisofs|genisoimage") so that
either package will satisfy the dependancy.

Thank you for your bug. The code calls "mkisofs" and the compatibility binary is shipped with mkisofs, that's not only a Depends that need to be changed, we will likely not change that for feisty, having mkisofs installed doesn't cost much and is easier than changing the source code

In fact, it's actually just a symlink! not even a binary...
mkisofs -> genisoimage
mkhybrid -> genisoimage

Of course genisoimage may well be designed to behave differently
   depending on what name is was called-under!
(i.e. genisoimage may well have "compatibility syntax" for
   mkisofs / mkhybrid syntax.....)

Therefore, nautilus-cd-burner may well need more than just changing
   "mkisofs" to "genisoimage" (or maybe not).

I completely agree this is no problem at all for feisty and
   that it should be fixed later and likely in upstream
   somewhere...

Thanks for the reply,
