Hi, a new GNU xorriso-1.5.7 tarball is uploaded:
https://www.gnu.org/software/xorriso/xorriso-1.5.7.tar.gz SHA256: 200463b1b37de5a52abf3e16324e6e54f572cb5a97cd56cab4c04f03893b2efe (Expected to be that way for a few days or weeks but will change with the next snapshot tarball upload, of course.) Among other improvements it introduces the new command volid_for: -volid_for fs_types text Specify the volume ID for one or more filesystem types. A xorriso made ISO 9660 image may offer four different filesystems for mounting: ISO 9660 aka ECMA-119 (normally with Rock Ridge), Joliet, ISO 9660:1999, and HFS+. The parameter fs_types chooses the types for which the volume ID shall be set by the -volid_for command. It is a comma separated list of keywords out of "ecma119", "joliet", "iso_9660_1999", "hfsplus". Keyword "all" chooses all four types. Example: -volid_for joliet "Joliet Volume Id" -volid_for ecma119,iso_9660_1999 "LONGER_ISO_VOLUME_ID" ... demoting the old command to a mere special case: -volid text Specify the volume ID for all filesystem types. I.e. perform -volid_for "all" with the given parameter text. The same happened to the old -as mkisofs option -V alias -volid, which now is only a convenience frontend to the new option -volid_for . ----------------------------------------------------------------------- For building GNU xorriso you should have the Debian package "build-essential" installed in order to have pulled in its dependencies which enable vanilla C development on a Debian base system. See also https://packages.debian.org/unstable/build-essential Non-mandatory are the development packages libreadline-dev, libacl1-dev, zlib1g-dev, libjte-dev which enable the extra features as present in Debian's xorriso package and also ensure that their run-time libraries are installed. Proceed according to the GNU xorriso README file in a directory of your choice: tar xzf xorriso-1.5.7.tar.gz cd xorriso-1.5.7 ./configure --prefix=/usr make Check whether the program is willing to run: xorriso/xorriso -version -list_extras You may use it from there by the absolute which gets shown by echo $(pwd)/xorriso/xorriso or you may install it (after having uninstalled Debian's xorriso) by sudo make install or you may put it into a suitable directory where the shell can find it by a name of your choice sudo cp xorriso/xorriso /usr/local/bin/gnu_xorriso ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This Debian bug report is supposed to get closed automatically when xorriso-1.5.8 is released some day and processed into a Debian package. Have a nice day :) Thomas
