Bug#700642: index files are not updated
When looked again in the target, directory I found the sources.list is
clean ie, does not have any repository configured but the indexes are
not cleaned (missed running an apt-get update after changing
sources.list).
apt-cache policy grub-pc shows a network repository
grub-pc:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 1.99-26
Version table:
1.99-26 0
500 cdrom://[Debian GNU/Linux 7.0~b4 _Wheezy_ - Official
Snapshot amd64 LIVE/INSTALL Binary 20130120-20:35]/ wheezy/main amd64
Packages
500 http://ftp.debian.org/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages
Now there is also another problem as it should take cdrom:// as first
priority, but it somehow can't find it, probably, as it is live USB
and apt is expecting a traditional cdrom.
This issue was reproduced in a VirtualBox VM so it is not hardware
specific (as I guessed in the beginning).

You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your
rights from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as
they follow the rules: laws and constitution.
