Package: apt Version: 0.8.8 Severity: important Following the draft release notes for Squeeze, I veirifed that I had a working mount for /dev/cdrom at /cdrom, and added a CDROM using "apt-cdrom add". After upgrading successfully to squeeze, I attempted to install a package from the CDROM which had dependencies also on the same CDROM; apt-get reported that all but one of the packages required from the CDROM was not found; after apt-get exited, the CDROM was mounted at /media/apt. By trial and error, it is apparent that only the first package that apt-get looked for on the CDROM was ever "found"; strace (attached) shows that apt-get mounts the CDROM at /media/apt and looks there for the first package, but any subsequent packages are searched for under '/cdrom', which is not mounted and so the packages are not found. Changing the mountpoint in /etc/fstab to '/media/apt' does not help; the only way I can find to install multiple packages from the same CDROM in a single apt-get operation is to replace the /cdrom mountpoint with a symbolic link to /media/apt.
