It sounds like there's another place the method is stripping off all
but the first three words of the cd name. Yes, replace
/usr/lib/dpkg/methods/multicd/install:225
$need = join(" ", (split)[0 .. 2]);
with
$need = $_ ;
And that should get rid of the problem. I haven't tested this, but it
looks like that's where it stripped the volume name down.
