Package: simple-cdd
Version: 0.3.5
Severity: important
Hi, i isolated a strange bug that occurs if one choose to set a
BOOT_TIMEOUT in isolinux.cfg.

at /usr/share/simple-cdd/tools/build/debian-cd, line 40, we have:

    if [ -n "$BOOT_TIMEOUT" ]; then
        sed -ie "s,TIMEOUT.*,TIMEOUT $BOOT_TIMEOUT,g" $isolinuxcfg
    fi

so if you set it, you will now have a new file ${isolinuxcfg}e

but, i think for a mkisofs design, during debian-cd's image target execution:

mkisofs -r -V Debian unstable i386 Bin-1 -o 
/home/oggei/dev/vobe-cd/images/debian-unstable-i386-CD-1.iso -J -cache-inodes 
-b isolinux/isolinux.bin -c isolinux/boot.cat -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 
-boot-info-table boot1 CD1
I: -input-charset not specified, using utf-8 (detected in locale settings)
Using ISOLI000.CFG;1 for  boot1/isolinux/isolinux.cfg (isolinux.cfge)
[...]

so the image will have the semi-original isolinux.cfge, and no timeout or other 
bells'n'whistles.

The nastiness is that on the 9660 part of the gen iso you in fact have:

/cdrom/isolinux/isolinux.cfg
/cdrom/isolinux/isolinux.cfge

so one may think that isolinux got proper configuration.

I think it would suffice to remove suffix letter from that sed invocation.

HTH,
