Package: bootcd
Version: 6.6.5
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
when trying to ignore a folder with files bigger than 4GB, I get the following
error message:
---------- snip -----
bootcdwrite -m -y -c */root/bootcdwrite.conf*
--- Checking for possible Problems ---

--- WARNING ---
S_NEED_COMPRESS > S_VAR (113717304 > 72959976)
To enable compression there must be much space (S_VAR)
available in /var/spool/bootcd to hold extra space for compression.
We need double as much space (S_NEED_COMPRESS) as will be copied to CD.
but the space available is not enough

You can exclude files/dirs in NOT_TO_CD in bootcdwrite.conf.
You can try to ignore this problem, if you only want an iso image.

--------- snap --------------
I could not find any related information of this, either in th elogfiles, nor
in the internet.
For me, it looks like a bug.
Another thing (maybe the same reason): Folders with a space in the name, like
"VirtualBox VMs", can not be recognized. Even when masking the name, like
"VirtualBox\ VM" it recognizes two folders: "VirtualBox\" and "VM". The
trailing slash is beeing ignored.
I am happy for any help.
Best regards
Hans
