[Pkg-opt-media-team] Bug#632522: /usr/bin/growisofs: growisofs does not burn the folders but its content

[yellowprotoss]

Package: dvd+rw-tools
Version: 7.1-6
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/growisofs

Hello, 

I would like to mention that there is an issue regarding burning folders by using the command switch: -path-list
If you have the file list.lst : 
/tmp/mydocuments/
/tmp/mymp3.mp3

and you may try to use the command: 

    /usr/bin/growisofs -Z "$DEV" -use-the-force-luke=notray -use-the-force-luke=tty -use-the-force-luke=dao -dvd-compat -speed=6 -gui -graft-points -sysid LINUX -volset-size 1 -full-iso9660-filenames -max-iso9660-filenames -iso-level 2 -path-list /tmp/list.lst

you will ended wihtout burning the folder mydocuments, but however it will burn the content of the folder without the first directory, whihc actually allows much order, which is mydocuments.

mydocuments is nowehere burn , however its contents is burnt. It may be very dangerous and corrupt data if several folder are burn.

Example: 
cp -r myfolder /tmp 
will copy the folder myfolder and not its content

Please a fix or another new better switch for that.

That's important if you are maintaing the package.

Kind regards
L.
