[Bug 1764096] [NEW] Brasero can't burn DVD because of permissions issue

[Sergey Zolotarev]

Public bug reported:

When trying to burn a data project with Brasero it exits with "unknown
error". In the log file it says the following:

BraseroWodim stderr: wodim: Operation not permitted. Warning: Cannot raise RLIMIT_MEMLOCK limits.
BraseroWodim called brasero_job_get_flags
BraseroWodim stderr: wodim: Resource temporarily unavailable. Cannot get mmap for 16781312 Bytes on /dev/zero.
BraseroWodim called brasero_job_get_flags
BraseroWodim stdout: TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM
BraseroWodim stderr: HUP
BraseroWodim stdout: HUP
BraseroWodim process finished with status 11
BraseroWodim called brasero_job_error
BraseroWodim finished with an error
BraseroWodim asked to stop because of an error
	error		= 0
	message	= "no message"
BraseroWodim stopping
Session error : unknown (brasero_burn_record brasero-burn.c:2859)

Current user is a member of the cdrom group.

As a workaround I set setuid bit on /usr/bin/wodim, after that Brasero
was able to burn the DVD.

sudo chmod +s $(which wodim)

As far as I remember DVD burning used to work on Ubuntu 17.10.
