Public bug reported:
I don't have a high-speed Internet connection so I downloaded apart the
DVDs with the Universe/Multiverse repositories, and then added them to
my repositories list.
Sometimes I install a package that needs dependencies from several DVDs,
and apt asks me for those, always in the same order (I suppose this is
the order I added them).
If apt just needs the DVD 2 and this is mounted, doesn't ask it and
installas. But if needs the DVD 1 and 2 and the 2 is mounted, asks me
the 1 and then the 2, instead of using first the one that is mounted.
I know this is not a bug, this is a nonsense. But I know a lot of people
(well, not too much) that use this kind of repositories because want to
use Ubuntu and don't have (or can't configure) their Internet
connection.

apt should look into the mounted device before all
