[nova] Getting away from cdrkit / genisoimage
Hi, Please see: https://bugs.debian.org/982241 It looks like cdrkit / genisoimage wont be available in the next Debian 12 (and therefore probably it will also be dropped in Ubuntu). As per the bug report: "I'm told xorriso and libburnia are alternatives and are alive and doing well." Would it be possible to switch to that? Cheers, Thomas Goirand (zigo)

Yeah, xorriso provides a drop in replacement for genisoimage in the form of mkisofs so you can either default to that in your nova-dist.conf or deployment tooling as TripleO is doing for el9 based hosts. I also have a WIP change up to move the default of [configdrive]mkisofs_cmd in Nova to mkisofs during Yoga.
