Same issue here, with brasero 3.2.0-4. Installing genisoimage fixes the
problem, so it looks like a dependency is indeed missing. Setting the
severity accordingly.
OTOH, it is not clear to me if brasero is capable of using something
else instead of genisoimage. If it is the case, a lower severity might
be warranted, but then it's not clear to me why that other thing is not
installed (and used) by default.
My setup is a few month old testing installation, immediately upgraded
to unstable, which I've been following closely on a daily basis. I
haven't installed brasero directly, but it got installed as a dependency
of gnome metapackages, so I think it's fair to expect it comes with all
needed components to burn data DVDs.
Thanks for maintaining brasero (and GNOME)!
Cheers.

Bug#658789: brasero: Brasero requires genisoimage but dooes not depend on it?
Package: brasero Version: 3.2.0-3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Trying to burn a data DVD. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Started the actual burn process. * What was the outcome of this action? Got as far as doing the image checksum, then failed, with the following in the log: BraseroGrowisofs stdout: Executing 'genisoimage -r -J -dvd-video -graft-points -path-list /tmp/brasero_tmp_IZAR8V -exclude-list /tmp/brasero_tmp_W0AR8V -print-size -f /tmp/brasero_tmp_QCcblG | builtin_dd of=/dev/sr1 obs=32k seek=0' BraseroGrowisofs called brasero_job_set_dangerous BraseroGrowisofs stderr: :-( unable to execute genisoimage: No such file or directory BraseroGrowisofs stderr: HUP BraseroGrowisofs stdout: HUP BraseroGrowisofs process finished with status 5 BraseroGrowisofs called brasero_job_error BraseroGrowisofs finished with an error BraseroGrowisofs asked to stop because of an error error = 0 message = no message BraseroGrowisofs stopping Session error : unknown (brasero_burn_record brasero-burn.c:2859) * What outcome did you expect instead? It would be nice if the error was reported more clearly in the GUI. It would be nice if there was an option to show the log rather than making the user save it somewhere. But more to the point, I fixed this very simply by installing the genisoimage package. I see it's not a dependency right now, and that doesn't seem to make sense. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.1.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages brasero depends on: ii brasero-common 3.2.0-3 ii gnome-icon-theme 3.2.1.2-1 ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-base 0.10.35-1 ii gvfs 1.10.1-2 ii libatk1.0-0 2.2.0-2 ii libbrasero-media3-1 3.2.0-3 ii libc62.13-24 ii libcairo-gobject21.10.2-6.2 ii libcairo21.10.2-6.2 ii libfontconfig1 2.8.0-3.1 ii libfreetype6 2.4.8-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.24.0-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.30.2-6 ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-0 0.10.35-1 ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.35-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.2.3-1 ii libice6 2:1.0.7-2 ii libnautilus-extension1a 3.2.1-2+b1 ii libpango1.0-01.29.4-2 ii libsm6 2:1.2.0-2 ii libtotem-plparser17 2.32.6-2 ii libtracker-sparql-0.12-0 0.12.9-1+b1 ii libxml2 2.7.8.dfsg-7 brasero recommends no packages.
