#3 Ho no!! :( Fail to rebuild a iso. (linux binary compiled from source)

[Babilozzo]

Well I get source and compiled it. Run executable from linux debian and I try to rebuild few isos, used -r flag instead, but unfortunately the isos rebuild fail and fail other checks of integrity bt xextool or abgx (it says "unable to extract resource from default.xex or invalid archive")
So I lose all default.xex signature, resulting is backup-rebuild image!!!

This is no good right??.

So my question now, is possible to recover default.xex signature bits losed during rebuild process?

And a side note, extract process from a abgx validated isos image working well.

Thank you for any reply in advance, goodbye.

I try to explain better, lol.
First I do rebuild command in kterm on isos folder with wildcard *
for ex. "extract-xiso -r *.iso" (this thing corrupt default.xex).
And save extracted folder in another drive using command :
"extract-xiso nameofbackup.iso -d /path/of/other/drive/nameofbackup/
And check default.xex whit command :
"xextool -l /path/of/other/drive/nameofbackup/default.xex"

>Error reading xex file /path/of/other/drive/nameofbackup/default.xex

If I try to do the same rebuild command and xextool check then with full name of the backup file .old extension
for ex. "extract-xiso -r nameofbackup.iso.old so is the same thing.

And now try to direct extract nameofbackup.iso.old.old in another path for ex.:
"extract-xiso nameofbackup.iso.old.old" this work fine and xextool grab data from defaukt.xex !! loool :D

Now I work for compare two default.xex (good and bad) with an exadecimal editor to find any bytes messed'up I hope to find any light :) ...

I look this files today , used cmp -l command and result print all bytes different. in hex editor binary data show like this..

Same in size but all wrong. And so I test other files in iso extracted folder (good and bad diff), everything is different, same size but content is different . Ho no!

Beware of use extract-xiso -r flag will result damaged all files repacked in iso
