Bug Description

How do I figure out which version this is?

Latest and greatest with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx

When trying to burn a backup DVD, I get the following error reported in the log and the program quits.

BraseroChecksumFiles finished with an error
BraseroChecksumFiles asked to stop because of an error
 error = 1
 message = "File "copyright" could not be opened (Permission denied)"
BraseroChecksumFiles stopping
Session error : File "copyright" could not be opened (Permission denied) (brasero_burn_record brasero-burn.c:2839)

The problems are 2 fold with this error:

(1) I should have been given a means to continue. After all, I had the ability to be root. and I need to make a backup.
I guess I SUDO the program, but it AUTO launches, so I'll have to figure that out.

(2) The error does not give me that Abs path and with a large backup, it's not possiblel to find the offending file. A search for "copyright" gives me several hundred hits.

Now I have to figure out how to make my backup. Guess I'll try to launch brasero with SUDO.

Oh. btw, the Sudo workaround worked.

Terminal
Sudo brasero
password:

[Then build your file and write an ISO file.]
terminal
chown yourself xxx.iso

and now you can burn the ISO to the disk as per instructions here:
