Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: apt
I did a network (medialess) install of Ubuintu 10.04LTS on a new PC,
then added a CDROM source using "apt-cdrom add".
It recongized my media and added appropriate lines to sources.list anmd
so on, but installing packages from the CDROM at the console command
line fails with "file not found" messages.
On this system (presumably, because it's a medialess install) there is
no entry for the cdrom in /etc/fstab.
It looks like what happens is that apt-get, etc., mount the CDROM at
/media/apt, but when lookng for packages it's searching under /cdrom,
whgich does not exist.
Creating a symbolic link to /media/apt at /cdrom allows things to work,
but should not be necessary. Apt-cdrom should use the same mountpoint
for accessing files on the CDROM as it used to mount the medium.
** Affects: apt (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
