I see this with brasero-3.8.0-1.fc19.i686 . Brasero has not been updated recently, so the problem must be caused by am update of some other dependency.

I guess it fails because the brasero normalize plugin depends on http://normalize.nongnu.org/ . That package seems to be mp3-ish and is not in fedora (but can be found in rpmfusion-free).

The workaround of disabling the normalize plugin works here.

It used to work - I don't know why it stopped working. I guess the plugin should be disabled by default and/or if the dependencies not are available.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 22 development cycle.
Changing version to '22'.

Checking the current release 3.12.1, normalize seems to be disabled by default (I've never changed the setting).
