isoimagewriter in OpenMandriva Lx

I am user knowledge level. I do not know why this occurs, if is the isoimagewriter or something within OpenMandriva's system packages. But we would like to have this tool working. 

Also the previous version isoimagewriter-0.8-0.20210514.1 did work OK. The only issue then was that the verify checksum utility does not work on OM Lx .isos but that is another, less important, issue.

I will do or provide whatever I can to help find the cause of this. I can get in touch with OM devs if needed.

OM's git stuff: https://github.com/OpenMandrivaAssociation/isoimagewriter  >>> obviously OM is doing these packages as git snapshots.

OpenMandriva issue report: https://github.com/OpenMandrivaAssociation/distribution/issues/2750

This is a confirmed issue at OpenMandriva.

Looks like I missed some info in my report:

EXPECTED RESULT

That isoimagewriter copies the .iso image to the usb flash drive.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

Linux/KDE Plasma: OpenMandriva Linux 4.3 

KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.87.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

I will admit I wished I knew if this was really an issue with isoimagewriter and not something with some OM Lx system package? Or something like how OM Lx mounts or does not mount flash drives when they are plugged in? I just do not know. But I do know the previous v. OpenMandriva had did work OK.
