Debian (when talking about cdrtools) interprets the GPL in a way that makes
their entire distribution illegal.
You should ask them, why they are unwilling to use the same rules for all
software.

I am not sure whether you are aware of this, but there was a meeting between
Debian and me (accompanied by the OpenSource.org Director Simon Phipps).
This happened on March 6th 2009. Debian (Jörg Jaspert - the ftp masther in
person) at that time promised to include the original cdrtools into the Debian
distributuion within a few week. Nothing happened so far.
Ask Debian, why you cannot trust a promise made by Debian.

Are people who insist in software quality and who insist in licence legality
called stubborn?
Debian on the other side has a problem with software quality and the legality
of their "wodim"....

Let me give some minor corrections:
In May 2004, the Debian packetizer changed and the new one was not
collaborative. After he tried to force me in vain to include a buggy so called
"UTF-8 support patch" into mkisofs, I received a lot of personal attacks from
him.
Later (in 2005), he claimed that there was a GPL license problem in "cdrecord"
even though all programs in cdrtools have been completely under GPL.
After it turned out, that even the Debian leaders have not been willing to
correct this person, I started to relicense the sources under CDDL - but this
was done as a result of the attacks from Debian.
Now "mkisofs" is still under GPL, but the rest of the programs are 100% CDDL.
Debian still claims that "cdrecord" has a GPL problem - even though cdrecord
is 100% CDDL. I am not sure whether there are people who understand this....
OpenSource still winns, as nobody is forced to use the binaries from Debian.
Users should however ask Debian why they are not able to solve an internal
social problem within 9 years.

Are you using the original mkisofs or the buggy variant from Debian?
"genisoimage" is made from an original from September 2004 with many Debian
specific bugs added.
