dudes, my nautilus package might be ill......
Dear folks,
I can't seem to get my blank DVD burned with nautilus to back up some files. I get an error which says something like "nautilus cannot display burn:///" please try another display viewer or something.
I did
debian:/home/mikef# aptitude reinstall nautilus
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree

Reading extended state information

The following packages will be REINSTALLED:
nautilus
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 reinstalled, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
E: I wasn't able to locate file for the nautilus package. This might mean you need to manually fix this package.
Writing extended state information... Done

E: Internal error: couldn't generate list of packages to download
as root and then got the horrible little E: messages which are always a bad sign....... When they say I might need to manually fix this package what would that mean doing in practice?
Suggestions welcome.

PS I am running Debian Lenny on a newish fairly upscale AMD64 box.
