My feeling is that we ought not permit packages or apps to download code from external sources, at least not at install time. This seems like security risk.

See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cdrtools#License_compatibility_controversy for some abbreviated summary of the licensing issue.
You can use cdrkit to burn optical media, or just switch to the much more modern libburnia which is used by many open source projects: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libburnia
GNOME's Brasero is using libburn anyway.

@MrChromebox I am not sure if this issue relates to Coreboot. I see exactly this issue when e.g. booting from the OEM or live image and choose the memtest from the Grub menu.
And yes, I would also like to see this fixed since being able to run a memtest from a USB stick would be very helpful. I have not yet tested if this issue also applies to a PureOS installation.

This didn't change anything, but I did finally get an image of my screen after entering my decryption password, there are some statements about failed loading of firmware before PureOS boots. The least benign-sounding is:
[ 1.402310] i915 0000:0:02.0: firmware: failed to load i915/kbl_dmc_ver1_04. bin (-2)
