Internal error reported *after* burning - "Unsupported type of task operation"

[Noel J. Bergman]

Host: Thinkpad T61p (6457-7WU)

Ubuntu Jaunty 2.6.28-4 kernel
Brasero 0.8.4-0ubuntu1

I had just burned a Data Project DVD with Brasero. After what appears to be complete and successful burning, the disk ejected and brasero reported:

  Error while burning.
  An internal error occured

The tail end of the log is as follows:

See also http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=564748#c4. I don't know if it applies in this case (or in the very similar bug 296146), but as I read it, the Brasero author seems to suggest that our version of brasero, defaulting to growisofs, is a source of problems that can be eliminated by using libburn for the backend.
