Had the same unhelpful error message pop up on my near new install of Ubuntu 13.04, it occurred whenever I tried to copy a CD. I then noticed at the bottom of the Brasero package description it mentions also installing the package cdrdao for direct copying of CDs. I installed cdrdao and cue2toc, and now the error does not appear and I can successfully copy CDs.
Also note that these packages are not dependancies, recommended or suggested by the Brasero package, which seems like an oversight in my Ubuntu newbie opinion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1060507 Title: Opaque error message "Installing packages by files isn't supported" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/brasero/+bug/1060507/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
