I'm surprised by this, because in feisty, the cdrecord package is a
dummy package, containing only symlinks to wodim:

root at faui49b:~# dpkg -L cdrecord
/.
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/man
/usr/share/man/man1
/usr/share/doc
/usr/bin
/usr/share/man/man1/readcd.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/cdrecord.1.gz
/usr/share/doc/cdrecord
/usr/bin/readcd
/usr/bin/cdrecord


There clearly isn't even a /etc/default/cdrecord file shipped. So I
wonder where does the /etc/default/cdrecord file come from? What was
initially on the system? Was the machine perhaps upgraded from edgy or
dapper?
