Description Łukasz Stelmach 2014-12-21 19:54:32 UTC

app-misc/mc-4.8.11 uses xorriso to access files inside iso images (/usr/libexec/mc/extfs.d/iso9660). Apparently xorriso isn't available in Gentoo default portage tree.

Reproducible: Always

It fails nicely when xorriso is not available, I should think.

app-cdr/xorriso was removed three years ago:

"Remove app-cdr/xorriso as it is just bundled dev-libs/libisoburn package."

Well it does not explode, indeed, but neither it reports any problems when copying files from images without any content.

Filed upstream bug report to get better error handling as http://midnight-commander.org/ticket/3993.

On gentoo side we can also improve pkg_postinstall() install message that a lot of extra tools can be installed to get handling of external container formats.
