[Bug 510505] Re: cdrecord has no permission to open the device

[Thomas Mayer]

I've just seen this issue after upgrading from 16.04 to 18.04. Burning
DVDs worked but burning CDs didn't.

I worked around it via https://askubuntu.com/questions/1032903/problem-
with-k3b-in-18-04-releases-cdrecord-has-no-permission-to-open-the-
devi/1034927 with a

sudo chmod 4711 /usr/bin/wodim; sudo chmod 4711 /usr/bin/cdrdao

That did the trick and now allows me to also burn CDs.
