Subject: wodim: Wodim tells me to do the thing I'm already doing

Package: wodim
Version: 9:1.1.10-1
Severity: minor


packard:~/bin# wodim --devices
wodim: No such file or directory. 
Cannot open SCSI driver!
For possible targets try 'wodim --devices' or 'wodim -scanbus'.
For possible transport specifiers try 'wodim dev=help'.
For IDE/ATAPI devices configuration, see the file README.ATAPI.setup from
the wodim documentation.

Why does wodim tell me to try "wodim --devices" when that's the option I'm
trying?
