*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 523395 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/523395
I don't think this bug is duplicate of #523395 because of the following:
- Installing packages from online archives works fine in Karmic
- Installing packages from local archives works fine in Karmic
- If packages to be installed are located on the same DVD disc the
installation finishes successfully
Quote : Let me describe it in details. If I want to install a program
that needs more than one package, and those packages are located on
different DVDs, APT used to fetch then install then ask for the next
disc. But with Karmic, after fetching it doesn't install, it prompts for
the next discs... etc and then starts installation , the packages
currently in the last disc in the drive are installed, then giving an
error about the other packages which are located in the previous discs
because they are not there. Its not a problem in the discs, I think its
APT behavior itself that should be changed. Unfortunately I don't know
how to adjust this way of APT in Karmic. but a workaround for this is
pointing APT to the local repos already downloaded on the harddrive and
not using the created DVDs. I have tested it and worked fine.
