    Hey,

    Upstream k3b is searching for new maintainers, k3b is currently only in low level bugfixing and such a big change like switching away from cdrkit is out of scrope [1]. And it is too much work for the current Debian maintainers. Any help is welcomed.

    The discussion started, as Debian won't ship cdrkit ( wodim and genisoimage) anymore in bookworm [#982221].

    Dear k3b Maintainers,

    your package depends on wodim and genisoimage, both built from
    cdrkit sources. cdrkit does not have a path forward, please switch
    away from it rather soon. I'm told xorriso and libburnia are
    alternatives and are alive and doing well.

    It's been suggested cdrkit should not be in bookworm.

    Chris
