I'm probably one of the few still backing up on optical media.
Blu-ray support is via libburnia/xorriso and the gui front end is
helpful in putting together an iso directory of files. All files have
to be < 4Gb.
The gui has a file browser that relies on the bwidget package and is
provided as a runtime dependency in Debian and Debian derivatives. File
browsing works if bwidget is installed.
Either adding bwidget as a runtime dependency or a mention in a
pkg-readme would improve port functionality.
The second issue is a core dump when attempting to burn an *iso file:
Building an iso directory from files on the fly and burning does work.
"xorriso 1.5.6 : RockRidge filesystem manipulator, libburnia project.
EOF at reply pipe
Error in startup script: child killed: SIGABRT
while executing
"exec xorriso -launch_frontend "/usr/local/bin/xorriso-tcltk" --silent_start --stdio --

"eval exec xorriso -launch_frontend "\"$self\"" --silent_start --stdio $argv --

(procedure "start_xorriso" line 38)

(procedure "setup_by_args" line 98)
invoked from within
"setup_by_args $argv0 $argv"
(file "/usr/local/bin/xorriso-tcltk" line 5925)"
It generates a *.core if more info needed.
tkDVD burns *.iso files w/o issue and this issue does not come up with
xorriso-tcltk in Debian and derivatives.
Thanks for maintaining
