Hurd even had apt-cdrom? The ancient version that was packaged sure didn't
include it, so I'm not amazed if it didn't work :P

Since hurd has a mordern APT now, I don't think this is a worry. If it
still doesn't work, then there be a bug in there that should be fixed, and
not used as a reason to butcher our CDs.

I don't see any additions to the CD set from another site being a concern
at all, as long as they are properly put in a seperate directory.
