Severity: wishlist
It's conceivable that a user might accidentally misplace/destroy/loan
out one or more CDs registered with "apt-cdrom add"; attempts to install
packages located on that disc would then result in a confusing attempt
to look for it.
The elegant way around this would be to have the command "apt-cdrom
remove", which would present a list of databased discs and eliminate
the lost/damaged/lent out CDs from the availability database.

Or you can just edit /etc/apt/sources.list
