    <para>
        The <application>dvd+rw-tools</application> package contains
    several utilities to master the DVD media, both +RW/+R and -R[W]. The
    principle tool is <command>growisofs</command> which provides a way to both
    lay down <emphasis role='strong'>and</emphasis> grow an ISO9660 file system
    on (as well as to burn an arbitrary pre-mastered image to) all supported
    DVD media. This is useful for creating a new DVD or adding to an existing
    image on a partially burned DVD.

      Though not required during the build, you must have installed a package
      which provides the <command>xorrisofs</command> command, such as
      <xref linkend="libisoburn"/>, or the <command>growisofs</command> command
      will not function properly, rendering the entire package useless.

      sed includes <filename>limits.h</filename>, one of the kernel headers.

      changes the code to use <command>xorrisofs</command> from
      <xref linkend="xorriso"/>. The default was for it to use
