Erm.. actually there still is a sysutils/mkisofs port. It is just a slave port to sysutils/cdrtools, meaning that it uses the fetch and build instructions of the cdrtools port, but it only installs mkisofs. So technically, while mkisofs is indeed a part of the cdrtools package, and while the cdrtools port does install a mkisofs binary, there *is* a sysutils/mkisofs port, it just cannot be linked to directly from the docs :) G'luck, Peter -- This sentence every third, but it still comprehensible.
