I don't understand what is happening here - not that I'm in any way an expert :).
The only think I can think of is a mismatch between your kernel version and
udftools. What distribution are you using and what are the versions of your
kernel and udftools/pktsetup, please?

uname -r will give you kernel version and the output from pktsetup with no
arguments will give enough information about your udftools/pktsetup version.

The version of pktcdvd might also help. You can get the version from dmesg
after the pktcdvd module has loaded
