I've tested this with system-config-packages-1.2.17-1, same problem. What version of hal, dbus-python and gnome-volume-manager do you have installed? Can you grab 1.2.18 from http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/system-config-packages/ and see if it does better? In short: No, it's no better. I've updated the packages you mentioned so I've now got: system-config-packages-1.2.18-1 hal-0.2.98.cvs20040923-1 dbus-python-0.22-9 gnome-volume-manager-0.9.10-2 I didn't do any timing tests but I'm sure that originally I got the "Unable to access disk." message as soon as I clicked OK when prompted for the CD. Now there's a 3 second delay (although it does not appear to access the CD drive during this time). Can you grab http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/method.py and place it in /usr/share/system-config-packages/ and then run s-c-p from the command line and see what it outputs?

Command line output of system-config-packages with new method.py
As requested here is the output with the modified method.py.
The same problem occurs.
hda is the CD drive, here's the entry from /etc/fstab:
/dev/hda /media/cdrw_dvdrom auto
noauto,user,exec,kudzu,ro 0 0
Just put a new method.py up at the same location with more debugging in the appropriate areas. Can you try with it? Created attachment 104667 [details]
System-config-packages output with test method.py
Okay, I think I see what is going on. Should be fixed in 1.2.19. (Will be up at http://people.redhat.com/~katzj/redhat-config-packages/ once I build it, 10-15 minutes or so) I've now tried 1.2.19 and I'm afraid I still get the same problem. I've finally got round to installing FC3t3 and no longer experience this problem. I have tried this in the latest FC3 release and it is still present. I have mounted the ISO image of disk2 to /media/cdrom and the package manager fails to find the files even though I did a ls on /media/cdrom and see all the contents of the image. I've also tried mounting in /mnt/cdrom - same results. Any idea whats wrong? Mike, would you please test with FC4? Thanks in advance Closing due to inactivity. This should be resolved in current releases |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040809 Epiphany/1.3.8 Description of problem: I've just installed FC3t2. I now want to install some additional packages. So I've opened the Add/Remove Applications window, selected my new packages and clicked Update. I then got a message telling me to insert Disc 1 which I've done and I then get the error "Unable to access disk.". (The CD auto mounts, is readable and I did a media check before installation, it was fine). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.2.16-2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select System Settings->Add/Remove Applications 2. Select some additional applications (e.g. Web Server). 3. Click Update. 4. The changes are processed and the required discs listed. 5. Insert the CD when prompted and click OK. Actual Results: The message "Unable to access disk." is displayed Expected Results: The packages should be installed from the CD. Additional info: I posted this to fedora-test-list and at least one other user has this issue.
