This is correct, your installation is incomplete.

Mkisofs cannot work correctly in all cases if siconv data is missing.

When I replaced the old libunls code by libsiconv more than a year ago, 
there was a verbose instruction in the announcement file. I thought that 
any maintainer would read this and update his install procedures...

If you omit -input-charset, mkisofs will chose the right values.

Well, level 1 is default too ;-)

Correct (but you may create /etc/default/cdrecord with the right content to 
default to the drive you usually like to use).
