Just been hit by this myself with ubuntu 6.10 desktop. The first thing I tried was apt-get install mcopy, which didn't work, I then looked on google and found this page.
The two ways forward I can see are 1) Change syslinux to not use mcopy 2) Make mtools a *dependency* of syslinux I have no idea how to do either, but I agree that I consider this a bug. -- This package should depends on mtools https://launchpad.net/bugs/75765 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
