Releases

This page contains the official source code releases of the libburnia project.

The release tarballs below need only vanilla tools like make and cc. 

tar xzf .../lib...x.y.z...tar.gz
cd lib...x.y.z
./configure ; make

For installation execute (probably you need to be superuser) 

make install

System Requirements:

* Linux with kernel 2.4: libc, libpthread, ide-scsi for IDE CD/DVD drives

* Linux with kernel 2.6: libc, libpthread

* FreeBSD : libc, libpthread, libcam, libiconv, atapicam for IDE and SATA drives.

* Solaris : libc, libpthread

* On other X/Open compliant systems there will only be POSIX i/o with disk file objects, but no direct MMC operation on CD/DVD/BD drives.

Optional System Components:

* Linux : libacl, libacl-devel, libreadline, libreadline-dev, zlib, zlib-devel

* FreeBSD : libreadline, zlib

* Solaris : zlib

If the development and runtime part of an optional component is present at compile time, then the runtime part must be present at run time.

CURRENT STABLE RELEASES

libisoburn novelties:

xorriso novelties:

* New option -read_mkisofsrc interprets .mkisofsrc To be performed before -as mkisofs. Performed automatically with program alias name "xorrisofs".

* Implemented -as mkisofs options -dir-mode, -file-mode, -abstract, -biblio, -copyright

* Implemented -as mkisofs options -hide, -hide-joliet, -hide-list, -hide-joliet-list

* New -as mkisofs option --boot-catalog-hide

* New option -hide, -find action -hide, -find test -hidden

* New -boot_image bootspec cat_hidden=on

* New options -copright_file , -biblio_file , -abstract_file

* New find test -disk_name

* Enabled use of libreadline on Solaris

* Bug fix: -check_media patch_lba0= could install wrong image size

* Bug fix: -as mkisofs option -volset was wrongly interpreted like -volid

Development Repositories

If you want to run a bleeding-edge version of libburn, libisofs, and libisoburn then you need autotools of at least version 1.7. You need svn and bzr for downloading. On FreeBSD or for release tarball production you will have to make a change in files ./ltmain.sh. See below.

Download and build libburn: 

svn co http://svn.libburnia-project.org/libburn/trunk libburn
cd libburn
./bootstrap ; ./configure ; make

Download and build libisofs: 

bzr branch lp:~libburnia-team/libisofs/scdbackup libisofs
cd libisofs
./bootstrap ; ./configure ; make

Download and build libisoburn: 

svn co http://svn.libburnia-project.org/libisoburn/trunk libisoburn
cd libisoburn
./bootstrap ; ./configure ; make

Building from Repositories on FreeBSD and General Release Tarball Production

In order to get our intended .so numbering on FreeBSD, you have to change the files 

./ltmain.sh

after they got generated by ./bootstrap from a global template file on your system (on SuSE 10.2 : /usr/share/libtools/ltmain.sh).

From 

        freebsd-elf)
          major=".$current"
          versuffix=".$current";
          ;;

to 

        freebsd-elf)
          major=.`expr $current - $age`
          versuffix="$major"
          ;;

before you run on FreeBSD 

./configure

for building our libraries from the repositories.

For producing libburnia release tarballs - regardless on what kind of system - this change must have been applied before 

make dist

so that it will not be needed when building those releases on FreeBSD.

(Sorry for the inconvenience. autotools had to choose from two undesirable alternatives on FreeBSD. Regrettably it implements the one that is not in our intention. One can change this choice in the global template file.)
