Please Cc me with replies. Be invited to re-use the descriptions of the Debian packages: Package: libburn4 Description: library to provide CD/DVD writing functions libburn is a library for reading, mastering and writing optical discs. Supported media are: CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-RAM, DVD+RW, DVD+R, DVD+R/DL, DVD-RW, DVD-R, DVD-R/DL, BD-R, BD-RE. Package: libisofs6 Description: library to create ISO 9660 images libisofs creates ISO 9660 (aka ECMA-119) filesystem images which can either be written to POSIX file objects or handed over to libburn for being written directly to optical media. It can read metadata of ISO 9660 filesystems, manipulate them, and use them to produce new complete filesystem images or add-on images to be appended to the read filesystem image. Supported extensions to ISO 9660 are Rock Ridge, Joliet, AAIP, zisofs. Well, the synopsis of libburn could need a "/BD" added to "CD/DVD". The current cdrskin description of Debian is too technical and too historical. I will change it to: Package: cdrskin Description: command line CD/DVD/BD writing tool cdrskin strives to be a second source for the services traditionally provided by cdrecord. It writes data sessions to CD, DVD, or BD media. To CD media it may also write audio sessions. Multi-session is possible on all media types except DVD-R DL and fastly blanked DVD-RW. . This is a burner-only application. If you want a burner and ISO 9660 image manipulation application, please install the xorriso package. ng0 wrote: > Tbh I took this 1:1 from upstream.

Hrm, yes, the wiki pages are too verbous for the purpose of a package description. > It is hard for me to take https://dev.lovelyhq.com/libburnia/web/wikis/home > and the descriptions linked in there and to decide what is useful. Just ask your friendly upstream. :)) Christopher Baines wrote: > I don't get the cdrecord reference at the end. It's historic. 10 years ago, the world was full of cdrecord forks. The author of cdrecord accused the forkers of stealing his work. cdrskin is not a fork but rather an emulation. I stole only the option names and their help text lines. Have a nice day :) Thomas
