Description Max 2003-09-02 09:42:10 UTC
Description of problem:

The module "redhat-install-packages" isn't able to browse the cd,
when requested, to add pre-requisite modules wich are not installed,
when installing a new package.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:

download the file opera-7.11-20030515.4-shared-qt.i386.rpm
from www.opera.com, rightclick from conqueror and select
"install packages". A messagebox will request the prerequisite 
package "openmotif21-2.1.30-8" and the cd "RedHat Linux 9.0.93" 
to be inserted for the update, but even after inserting, 
mounting it or not, the program will not find the file,
wich *is* in the cd at the location :

/RedHAt/RPMS/openmotif21-2.1.30-8.i386.rpm

but that will not be found :)

Steps to Reproduce:
1.download opera
2.install opera
3.install the cd#3 as requested
    
Actual results:

the requested file will never be found

Expected results:

the requested file is found by browsing the cd

Additional info:

may happens with other packages installations.

sorry for the form. it's my first bug report. 

the prebeta is wonderful. that never hangs my computer ! :)

Just to note that I am seeing the same thing here.  I have a DVD drive and a
CD-Burner drive and when I try to install packing using the
redhat-config-packages tool it cannot find a CD once I insert it, regardess of
which drive I try.

Still an issue with Fedora Core 0.94. 

Comment 3 Jeremy Katz 2003-10-14 23:00:49 UTC
