Bug#666766: debian-installer: 00CDMountPoint apt configuration file has an incorrect syntax



Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal

Hello maintainers of the debian-installer,

First of all, thank you for your hard work.


The apt configuration file /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00CDMountPoint looks like
generated by d-i [1].

Its syntax is not entirely correct, which causes annoying warnings for those
people who use cupt package manager.

Now it's:

| Acquire::cdrom {
|   mount "/media/cdrom";
| }
| Dir::Media::MountPath "/media/cdrom";

apt.conf(5) require semicolons after closing parentheses as well, so the right
syntax would be:

| Acquire::cdrom {
|   mount "/media/cdrom";
| };
| Dir::Media::MountPath "/media/cdrom";

(note the semicolon in the third line).

I wanted to provide a patch but couldn't find the file in the sources of d-i
[2]. Please let me know anything else I can do to have this fixed in the wheezy's
debian-installer.
