I got burned with this on Ubuntu Edgy, and now it appears I am still
stuck with it under Etch. K3b refuses to burn a file to DVD if the size
of the file exceeds 4 GB. From previous googling I know the problem is
in mkisofs. But I thought that there was a replacement for mkisofs
(growisofs?)

correct: you may use groisofs which is not realy a replacement of mkisofs

Unfortunately, Synaptic lists only mkisofs, and it also says that it is
just to create a link to genisofs, which is what everyone should be
using now. But genisofs is not listed in Synaptic. Neither is growisofs.


growisofs is in the dvd+rw-tools package.
