mkudf does not seem to be part of any packages.
You have UDF support in your kernel, but the tools are missing.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Try to create a UDF filesystem.
2.
3.

Comment 1 Arjan van de Ven 2001-04-17 17:33:28 UTC
UDF read is supported, write is very very experimental.
Anyway, mkudf isn't part of the kernel package ; reassigning

Comment 2 Elliot Lee 2001-07-18 18:01:16 UTC
Our kernel package doesn't appear to have the headers that udf-tools wants in
order to compile, and even when I tried to hack around this, I discovered that
some of the distributed source files were empty. It appears that UDF support in
the kernel and out is not mature enough to support udf-tools currently. Please
reopen this report once things are closer to widespread usability.

Comment 3 Martin Lichtin 2001-07-18 21:46:19 UTC
I think there might be a misunderstanding.
The tools compile ok.

Download http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/linux-udf/udf-0.9.4.1.tar.gz,
unpack, run "make tools" and there will be a number of tools available:

./tools/dumpsect
./tools/dumpfe
./tools/taglist
./tools/cdinfo
./tools/mkudf
./tools/chkudf
./tools/dumpea
./tools/checkdisk
./tools/bmap
./tools/dumpdisc
./tools/cdrwtool
./tools/pktsetup
./tools/pdumpsect

Obviously, not all tools need to be installed, but mkudf, chkudf, cdrwtool,
pktcdvd
should be part of the distribution.

Also, a device file is created: /dev/pktcdvd0
