No, my initial email was about problems I had with permissions/timestamps on
"normal" directories, so I made up a test case in which "dir1" had wrong
permissions/timestamp AS SEEN BY RHEL5 ISOFS LAYER.
See my 1st email, the line I marked with "<==== WRONG PERMS/TIME", that is
the output of the script I'd written above, at that point the output was
coming from "ls -l" command; maybe I could have spaced out the lines better
to avoid confusion.
I added the isoinfo output just because it showed correct
permissions/timestamp for the dir "dir1", as opposed to what the RHEL5 ISOFS
LAYER was seeing.
So my problem was with RHEL5 ISOFS LAYER, you then also saw some problems
with isoinfo for "." and ".." which I had completely ignored since I was
focused on the dir "dir1" issue.
The dir "dir1" had wrong timestamp/permissions, AS SEEN BY RHEL5 ISOFS
LAYER, even when iso image was created with mkisofs a42.
Now, with the mkisofs patch, the dir "dir1", AS SEEN BY RHEL5 ISOFS LAYER,
has correct permissions/timestamp, so my problems is solved. Thanks.

No.
