Like all other packages on Debian Sarge is about 2 years out of date. So that problem will (hopefully) vanish when the official release of Debian hits the decks. However, I fear that I was needlessly long-winded in my posting. My main concern was that the Gnome CD player loads automatically when it detects the presence of an audio CD in my DVD drive and I failed to find a configuration setting to switch off this feature. Hopefully this problem will also be resolvable when I get access to a later version of gnome-cd. My thanks to all respondents who were good enough to reply so promptly to my posting (via gmane - since I am not a regular subscriber to this list).
