Paul, Thanks for writing. Yes, the bug is still there in Ubuntu 7.10.
I never understood the "incomplete" status since I feel I provided enough information to verify the bug. I have characterized it a bit more: growisofs takes output from mkisofs or genisoimage and writes to the DVD. The problem is that if mkisofs or genisoimage terminate with a bad status, then growisofs also terminates and reports a good status. Try the following: use growisofs to copy a few big files (10+ MB) to a DVD. When growisofs begins the first file, delete the last file in the list before growisofs gets to it. mkisofs or genisoimage (whichever is being used) will abort with an error message like "cannot open xxxx". growisofs will terminate with a good status. I tried also the forked growisofs project called wodim, but it has other problems that force me to stay with growisofs for now. thanks Mike Paul Dufresne wrote: > Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make > Ubuntu better.
