To burn optical media (CDs, CDROMs, DVDs, Blu‐ray disks) permissions need to be adjusted after installing the command-line programs.
As root, execute the following:
apt install wodim cdrdao growisofs normalize-audio cdrskin
chown --reference=/dev/cdrom /usr/bin/cdrdao /usr/bin/wodim /usr/bin/growisofs
chmod 4711 /usr/bin/cdrdao /usr/bin/wodim
chmod 0750 /usr/bin/growisofs
ln -fs /usr/bin/wodim /usr/bin/cdrecord
After that, go on to install one of the swanky burners:
apt install brasero
apt install k3b
You should be a member of the cdrom group. You probably are.
