those three packages should take care of it, not sure why they don't
have them wrapped up in a nice cdrtools package, but that should do
it.

If you want to, or are interested, here is a good forum subject about

Before I found the ppa, this is actually how I did it, but in general,
I find being able to keep up to date with update manager and not
having to compile stuff is easier if I can get away with it.
