Package: apt
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system
I got the following bug report from a user, so I don't know the used version
of apt-cdrom and cannot give a detailed explanation. But the same happened to
me a few month ago too.
Please contact Heiko Baums <heiko@baums-on-web.de> for details.
OK, lets describe the problem:
Whenever you start
# apt-cdrom add
for recent Sid CD's or DVD's it adds main/debian-installer in addition to main
contrib, ... to /etc/apt/sources.list.
(I used the unofficial i386 CD/DVD's from fsn.hu.)
This makes it absolutly impossible to install or upgrade Woody to Sid.
This installs many .udeb's from debian-installer with many (hundreds) of
unresolved dependencies and other kinds of errors. Trust me, that's more
than ugly!
dists/sid/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages contains:
Package: libc-udeb
Priority: required
Section: debian-installer
That's bad, libc-udeb should not be installed (it's a module of
debian-installer and IIRC should be installed into a ramdisk during the base
install only).
cvs.debian.org/debian-installer/doc/modules.txt:
Unlike regular debian packages, modules for the installer will not be
policy compliant. They will not contain documentation in /usr/share/doc.
They need not comply with the FHS. They may be statically linked. They may
conflict with essential "real" debian packages, and thus be non-installable
on a real debian system, although it is recommended that if possible, this
be avoided.
Remove all debian-installer paths in sources.list to solve this problem.
