The author of cdrecord will always say you need to set it suid, even if you don't really need to (IIRC this has been a major disagreement with the Debian maintainer and has contributed to the fact that we have wodim now). Beware though that wodim and cdrecord are quite different. Regards, Andrei -- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.

Probably you had previously made wodim suid-root, but that was lost when wodim was upgraded.
