Bug Description
Binary package hint: pybackpack
Ubuntu 8.04.
pybackup 1.5.4-1
Tried to burn about 86 MB onto a CD using File Backup Manager.
A blank CD was in the drive.
It finished building the CD image, then asked me to insert a blank CD (despite already having one in the drive).
I clicked OK and it crashed.

This crash leaves some rubbish in /tmp/pybackpack
"An error occurred while setting up the temporary CD
image directory '/tmp/pybackpac
Please ensure you have write access to this location."
I do have write access to this location, as you can see from this shell session:
me@computer:/tmp$ ls -l pybackpack.cdimage/
total 4
drwxr-xr-x 3 me me 4096 2008-03-22 21:01 home
but there must be some files inside that have different permissions. If I chmod 777 the whole directory then File Backup Manager gets past this point, until it crashes again when it tries to write the CD.
