Package: molotov
Severity: wishlist

Molotov is a command-line program that aims to make it easy to create bootable 
flash drives on a Linux machine from a Windows 10 iso image. It is licensed 
under the GPL and the source package can be found here:

https://mentors.debian.net/package/molotov/

This package also comes with two manpages currently translated to English and 
Portuguese and is extremely lightweight and by lightweight I mean that this 
program only depends on other programs that are already installed on most 
distributions, that is, the grub bootloader and the tools required for 
partitioning flash drives. That's it.

However it's not all roses, Molotov depends on a Windows image to work, it 
doesn't do anything by itself, the user is required to download the image from 
the Microsoft's website and then use Molotov for making the ISO bootable and 
that is why I recommend putting Molotov in the **contrib** section of the 
Debian because it depends on non-free software to work.

So that's about it, I intend to package this program and make it available for 
all the users in Debian.
