This issue is documented in Red Hat Bugzilla Bug 1346427
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1346427
There is also a case opened with Red Hat Support: CASE 01652429
There are two workarounds:
1. Downgrade to:
brasero.x86_64 2.28.3-6.el6
brasero-libs.x86_64 2.28.3-6.el6
brasero-nautilus.x86_64 2.28.3-6.el6
2. Use command line utilities mkisofs and cdrecord:
mkisofs -o ISO_file_name.iso -J -r -V Disc_Label SourceFileDirectory/
cdrecord -v speed=2 dev=/dev/sr0 ISO_file_name.iso
------------------------------------------------------------
Details:
--------
Problem has been confirmed to be in brasero-nautilus-2.30.3-3.el6
Downgrading brasero packages to 2.28.3-6.el6 fixes the problem.
Description of problem:
After updating to RHEL 6.8, burning data optical discs using CD/DVD
Creator causes all regular file execute permissions to be removed.
Directory execute permissions are retained. This problem only appeared
after updating to RHEL/CentOS 6.8 from 6.7.
Using mkisofs / cdrecord with the same data produces optical media with
normal file permissions - all execute permissions are retained on files
and directories.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Insert blank optical media in CD/DVD writer
2. Select [Open CD/DVD Creator] when prompted and click [OK]
3. Drag files and directories with execute permissions into the creator
window
4. Click [Write to Disc]
