Here's a workaround:

Enter the following in the terminal:

-mkdir burn
-cd burn
-mkdir DEBIAN (this directory must be in caps)
-wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/b/burn/burn_0.4.3-2.1_i386.deb (this downloads the affected deb)
-dpkg-deb -e *.deb DEBIAN (this extracts the installation scripts)
-dpkg-deb -x *.deb . (this extracts the program files)
-nano -w DEBIAN/control (This allows you to edit the affected control file. The -w option disables word wrap.) In this text file change "cdrecord" to "wodim" and "mkisofs" to "genisoimage". Press F2 and then Y to save the file.
-mv *.deb .. (this moves the deb into another directory so it doesn't become part of the new deb)
-dpkg-deb -b . burn.deb (this builds the fixed deb)
-sudo gdebi burn.deb (this installs the deb along with its dependencies)
