Bug Description
I'm trying to test the apt-cdrom command on my Gutsy 64-bit system. I
run the
sudo apt-cdrom -d /media/cdrom0 add
command, and get the following messages
Using CD-ROM mount point /media/cdrom/
Unmounting CD-ROM
Waiting for disc...
Please insert a Disc in the drive and press enter
Mounting CD-ROM...
Identifying.. [some md5sum]
Scanning disc for index files..
Found 0 package indexes, 0 source indexes, 0 translation indexes and 1
signatures
E: Unable to locate any package files, perhaps this is not a Debian Disc
I get log messages like Dec 26 17:38:29 ubuntuserver kernel:
[13775.502213] UDF-fs: No VRS found
I've tried it with an ISO as well, mounted on /misc, configured
in /etc/fstab, and get the following errors in /var/log/syslog
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7394]: failed to
mount /misc/.disk
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7395]: failed to
mount /misc/.aptignr
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7396]: failed to
mount /misc/Release.gpg
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7397]: failed to
mount /misc/Packages
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7398]: failed to
mount /misc/Packages.gz
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7399]: failed to
mount /misc/Sources.gz
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7400]: failed to
mount /misc/Sources
Dec 26 17:18:00 ubuntuserver automount[7401]: failed to mount /misc/i18n
It's as if apt-cdrom expects to find .disk, .aptignr, Release.gpg and so
on in the base directory of the mounted CD (or ISO).
