…alternatively: you might try downloading Brasero from the internet and installing it yourself.
If you search for “brasero linux download” you will find lots of places to download it from, e.g. Brasero for Linux - Free download and software reviews - CNET Download.
Since Peppermint is Ubuntu-based I am fairly confident that it will work OK.
Let me know what you think.

Thank you. I’ll look at it on Sunday.
Did not work either!
$ sudo apt install clementine

No apt package “clementine”, but there is a snap with that name.
Try “snap install clementine”

Well I know how to download it- save the folder on my desktop, but after that I don’t know how to install it. Mark used to tell me what to do next on such things.
I think I just double-clicked on the file and it installed - try it.
Try “sudo dpkg -l brasero” to confirm it`s not there.
As Keith said try “sudo apt-get update” to update, then “sudo apt-get install brasero”, then try " sudo dpkg -l brasero" again to confirm it is there, or not.
Sorry it`s a repetition, belt & braces aproach.
If, after Keith’s and Wishbone’s suggestions, you still are missing Brasero, you can download it here: https://pkgs.org/download/brasero, for your Peppermint 9, scroll down to Ubuntu 18.04 and download that version. It should be a .deb file. Peppermint should install it using gdebi. Don’t forget you’ll need to use your password to authorise it.
That’s a very useful site, David. Solved a different problem for me. Many thanks.
Keith
Hi Melissa.
Did you succeed in downloading Brasero from either of the sites suggested?
If you have solved your problem (in any way) please let us know and mark your post as Solved.
As an aside;

Sorry guys, I have a new Chromebook ( refurbished one off Ebay so new to me) which is my main laptop now ( it has an SSD drive so is very fast!) so not been using my Linux netbook that much lately ( use it mostly for scanning pix). I’ll power it up tomorrow and try and see if I can get Brasero on it using your instructions.
Just a thought, Melissa,
Can’t you use the data stick and chromebook to burn CDs?
I’m not familiar with the chromebook so I may be completely wrong…
No because it has no CD drive, nor can you use external CD/DVD drives on it. I forgot to look again at the netbook. My friend Dave was doing some CDs for me on his Windows computer and using media player but last time I saw him he was having trouble with it ( probably needed an update ).
I’ve since bought a GPO Chesterton record player that looks a bit like an old radio and the usb stick works on that so I’ve been using it to play the mp3s on.
You can record off devices on it but I don’t think it does mp3s to CDS- not figured that out yet. It can play vinyl records, CDs, cassettes and mp3s off a data stick.
Hi Melissa
You can try sound-juicer
sudo sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install sound-juicer
I use a program called K3b for all CDs and DVDs it has worked for me on different versions of mint over the years.
If not in your package or software manager - http://www.k3b.org
