redhat-config-packages doesn't block magicdev from trying to mount the CD

From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020830 Description of problem: When running redhat-config-packages, and when it asks for a CD to install from, magicdev will pop up and ask if I want the CD to be mounted. This is after redhat-config-packages is already using the CD to copy rpms from. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. run redhat-config-packages 2. select new packages to install 3. insert CD when asked. Actual Results: redhat-config-packages will start using the CD, and a couple seconds later, magicdev will ask if I want it to be mounted. Expected Results: magicdev should be disabled when redhat-config-packages asks for the CD. Additional info: I only saw this in Gnome. I currently use fluxbox instead of Gnome, and magicdev doesn't pop up any windows into Fluxbox.
This is working properly for me here -- I stick in the CD, it gets mounted by magicdev, but no window pops up and redhat-config-packages uses it as though it mounted the CD itself. What options do you have set in the CD properties dialog?
Hrm... oddly enough I'm unable to duplicate this again here. I never touched the CD settings, they were default. I can't get it to ask me if I want to mount the CD anymore, it just automagically mounts them. How bizarre. Since neither you nor I can duplicate this, I suppose NOTABUG is appropriate. /me wanders off to kick the gremlins out of his box....
