Bug#500842: RFP: unetbootin -- universal netboot installer



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : unetbootin
  Version         : 282
  Upstream Author : Geza Kovacs <geza0kovacs@gmail.com>
* URL             : http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/
* License         : GPL-2+
  Programming Lang: C++/Qt4
  Description     : universal netboot installer

UNetbootin (Universal Netboot Installer) is a cross-platform utility that can
create Live USB systems and can load a variety of system utilities or install
various Linux distributions and other operating systems without a CD.

----

I wanted to package this interesting software by myself, but I found it has
some precompiled binaries (both for Windows and Linux), and after simply
removing them it doesn't compile. It does need at least two or three binaries
-- but I don't know how to circumvent this or how to use existing Debian
packages (if any exist for them): they are syslinux, but also other files
unknown to me, like "memdisk", or "ubn*".

Kindly,
David
