Package: bootcd Version: 6.6.5 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
when trying to ignore a folder with files bigger than 4GB, I get the following error message: ---------- snip ----- bootcdwrite -m -y -c */root/bootcdwrite.conf* --- Checking for possible Problems --- --- Cleanup --- --- WARNING --- S_NEED_COMPRESS > S_VAR (113717304 > 72959976) To enable compression there must be much space (S_VAR) available in /var/spool/bootcd to hold extra space for compression.

For me, it looks like a bug. Another thing (maybe the same reason): Folders with a space in the name, like "VirtualBox VMs", can not be recognized. Even when masking the name, like "VirtualBox\ VM" it recognizes two folders: "VirtualBox\" and "VM". The trailing slash is beeing ignored. I am happy for any help.
