The pktcdvd driver is essentially unmaintained and there is a chance
that you don't need it. 

Can you please try:

	echo > /etc/modprobe.d/debian-bug1107479.conf blacklist pktcdvd

reboot and then test again? Please report back if any functionallity
related to the DVD-RAM is missing without that module.

My guess is that it's fine and the resolution is to stop building that
module for Debian.

Best regards
Uwe
