Package: wimtools
Version: 1.11.0-1
mkwinpeimg --iso tries to invoke mkisofs, which is not provided by any package.
As per the wiki[0], the package mkisofs is no longer available in
debian and the preferred replacement is xorriso.
Both xorriso and genisoimage have command-line compatibility with
mkisofs, so a workaround is to create a symlink:
ln -s /usr/bin/xorriso /usr/bin/mkisofs
Here's the output before creating the symlink:
$ mkwinpeimg --iso --windows-dir="$dir" winpe.iso
ERROR: To make a bootable ISO image of Windows PE, we need the "mkisofs"
program, but it doesn't seem to be installed. Please install the "cdrkit"
package to continue, or try omitting the --iso option to make a disk image
instead of an ISO image.
Here's the output afterwards:
$ ln -s /usr/bin/xorriso /usr/bin/mkisofs
$ mkwinpeimg --iso --windows-dir="dir/" winpe.iso
