DVD+RW tools missing in Xubuntu Natty

Asked by frank

Tried to burn a rewritable cd on Xubuntu 11.04 today but the dvd+rw tools package was missing. Is this an oversight/bug?

It's in my install so is available. My system is fairly vanilla.

Strange. It was certainly missing from mine (beta-2) which I only noticed after installing Brasero.

Funnily enough I don't have a CD drive attached and I don't have any CD burning installed.

I usually use xfburn on Xubuntu which is part of the standard installation. I only noticed the missing package because I could not burn any rewritable cds/dvds. I am pretty sure the package should be part of the installation (it certainly wasn't missing from Xubuntu 10.10) which makes me think this is an oversight in the beta.

Then log a bug. Natty is not stable nor ready.
