My previous answer was here: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591782#c1 "The reason for the cdrkit requirement is to pull in "genisoimage" and the isotools (isodump, isoinfo, etc.) If those are available from another package in Gentoo, then you just need to substitute those in the build dependencies, and I think no other change should be required." --- Fedora has both genisoimage and mkisofs symlinked to each other. Upstream libguestfs will check for genisoimage followed by mkisofs, so most likely you can remove the cdrkit requirement and it should still work. Apart from that I don't really know anything about the history of these tools, but if you do then surely this is an easy patch since we only use genisoimage (the command) in a single place in the code. It looks to work fine indeed, thanks and sorry for the noise |
