APTonCD does not handle Packages file creation failure on case-insensitive filesystems

[Serhiy]

Since /tmp is placed in tmpfs which is small on netbooks, I've used directory on my external HDD as --temp-dir.
And it just stood "scanning packages" so I checked terminal output and it said (only in stderr/stdout):

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/APTonCD/create/createWindow.py", line 200, in on_btnBurn_clicked
    self.create_aptoncd()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/APTonCD/create/createWindow.py", line 482, in create_aptoncd
    result, msg = self.scan_packages(isoFileList,tmpdir)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/APTonCD/create/createWindow.py", line 346, in scan_packages
    apt_ftp.execute(command, destination, packages_files)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/APTonCD/core/scanpkgs.py", line 46, in execute
    inFile = open(destination,'w')
IOError: [Errno 21] Is a directory: '/media/Transcend/tmp/aptoncd/packages/DVD1/Packages'

because there are /media/Transcend/tmp/aptoncd/packages/DVD1/packages directory already.

I can try to fix it myself with simple try statement when I will be back online in the next year.

Thank you for reporting this bug for Ubuntu, sorry that we weren't able to provide a proper fix.

This package has been removed from the Ubuntu development release and upstream development appears to have stopped.
