Bug#974914: O: cdrkit

[John Paul Adrian Glaubitz <glaubitz@physik.fu-berlin.de>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
User: debian-68k@lists.debian.org
Usertags: m68k

Hello!

I'm orphaning the package cdrkit so I can pick it up as the new maintainer.

cdrkit has been abandoned upstream and has been replaced by the libburnia
tools but it's still required for the time being as xorriso currently
does not support creating legacy HFS filesystems which is required for
creating debian-installer ISO images for m68k.

I'm trying to support libburnia upstream to get HFS support added so that
we can finally drop cdrkit in the future as this is the only reason we
still need it in Debian. All the other architectures in d-i have been
moved to xorriso.

Thanks,
Adrian
