"apt-cdrom add" does nothing
This machine has DVD-RW drives to spare, and 10 of them have the complete wheezy set (one in each, of course.) The relevant entries in /etc/fstab is:
Code:
# grep cdrom /etc/fstab
/dev/sr3 /mnt/cdrom3 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr4 /mnt/cdrom4 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr5 /mnt/cdrom5 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr6 /mnt/cdrom6 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr7 /mnt/cdrom7 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr8 /mnt/cdrom8 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr9 /mnt/cdrom9 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr10 /mnt/cdrom10 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr11 /mnt/cdrom11 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
/dev/sr12 /mnt/cdrom12 udf,iso9660 user,noauto,ro 0 0
#
I can manually mount the disks with mount, as normal:
Code:
# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdi1 197G 47G 141G 26% /
# mount /mnt/cdrom3
# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sdi1 197G 47G 141G 26% /
/dev/sr3 3.7G 3.7G 0 100% /mnt/cdrom3
# ls -al /mnt/cdrom3
total 1298

#head -2 /mnt/cdrom3/README.txt
Debian GNU/Linux 7.5.0 "Wheezy" - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1

#
The same is true for the other 9 disks, of course (different contents, though.) With my /etc/apt/sources.list empty (actually, changing what's in /etc/apt/sources.list makes no difference whatsoever), the apt-cdrom ident command gives:
Code:
# apt-cdrom ident -d /mnt/cdrom3
Using CD-ROM mount point /mnt/cdrom3/
Mounting CD-ROM
Identifying.. [6d73808cb688810c8ef5c8c235d13cba-2]
Stored label:
Unmounting CD-ROM...
#
with similar results for the other 9 disks. When I try to add the disks to the apt system, though, nothing happens:
Code:
# apt-cdrom add -d /mnt/cdrom3
Repeat this process for the rest of the CDs in your set.
#
but the disk isn't added. The command takes a fraction of a second to run (0.024s, according to time(1)), and the drive is not accessed at all. I've tried all the options available to apt-cdrom, separately and multiply, without any useful results. There's absolutely no indication of what's wrong. I've tried adding the disk IDs to /etc/apt/sources.list manually:
Code:
# cat /etc/apt/sources.list
deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 7.5.0 _Wheezy_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20140426-13:37]/ wheezy contrib main
#
but it makes no difference. I've tried adding Acquire::cdrom::mount "/mnt/cdrom3/"; to /etc/apt/apt.conf, but it makes no difference.
Code:
# cat /etc/apt/apt.conf
Acquire::cdrom::mount "/mnt/cdrom3/";
#
What the hell's going on? I'm beginning to think the whole apt system is irreparably brain-damaged, although it may be my brain that's damaged.
Am I missing something obvious? Is it a bug in apt-cdrom? |
