Thanks, I've applied. But a few questions/comments below.

The Config.in help text for the target variant, in
package/xorriso/Config.in, is completely different. Yours is
copy/pasted from the xorriso home page, which looks good. So maybe it
would be good to use the same for the target variant of xorriso.

Another question is: can we use xorisso instead of cdrkit in
fs/iso9660/ to build ISO images ?

I don't have anything against cdrkit, but it uses CMake, and it takes
ages to build.

Thanks!

Thomas
