Bug#439296: brasero doesn't format fresh dvd+rw before burning

[Brent S. Elmer, Ph.D.]

Subject: brasero doesn't format fresh dvd+rw before burning
Package: brasero
Version: 0.6.0-2
Severity: important

*** Please type your report below this line ***
Brasero should handle a fresh dvd+rw when burning.  When you click on 
burn, brasero says there are 0 bytes empty on a brand new dvd+rw disk.  
It should format the disk and then burn.  If I manually format the dvd 
using dvd+rw-format, then brasero will say the disk size is not 0.
