Sounds like an unfortunate design.

I have on my todo list to test CDEmu ( http://cdemu.sourceforge.net/ ),
a set of kernel module and userland tools to emulate the existence of
an optical drive. Regrettably it is not offered by Debian.

Did you already try Brasero or K3B ? (They might pull in lots of other
Debian packages which they need to run.)

I myself can offer command line program xorriso and its frontend demo
xorriso-tcltk. Both with quite lean dependencies.

xorriso is available as Debian package.
To put a copy of directory "$HOME"/for_iso as "/" into file my_image.iso:

  xorriso -outdev my_image.iso -map "$HOME"/for_iso /

If you tell me your particular intention and directory situation on
hard disk, then i will make a proposal how to compose a suitable
xorriso command line.

xorriso-tcltk is available from
  https://dev.lovelyhq.com/libburnia/libisoburn/raw/master/frontend/xorriso-tcltk
Use a file manager or command "chmod" to give exection permission to the
file after download. The script needs Debian packages "tcl", "tk", andi
"bwidget".
Write your intended ISO image path to the field "Output drive/image".
Toggle the name of an input file or directory into field "Insert from disk"
and press the Enter key, or use the "/" button to the right of that field
to get a file browser.
When the composition is done, click button "Write ISO session".


Have a nice day :)

Thomas
