Description Glen Ogilvie 2013-03-27 10:44:42 CET 
Testing: Mageia-3-beta4-x86_64-DVD.iso

Perform a minimal install: (including urpmi)

Then, with the DVD present, run:

urpmi task-kde4
After answering questions, a repeated message of:
"Please insert the medium named "Core Release"" is displayed, a large number of times.  ( I got bored and pressed ctrl-C)

OR

urpmi --auto --verbose task-kde4

Output:
--------------------
getting lock on urpmi
examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.Core Release.cz]
examining synthesis file [/var/lib/urpmi/synthesis.hdlist.Nonfree Release.cz]
getting exclusive lock on rpm

found cdrom Core Release mounted in /media/Mageia-3 beta4-x86_64
medium "Core Release" is not available
unlocking rpm database
unlocking urpmi database


This is odd, because, trying something like:
urpmi python
works, and it installs python.

If I eject the DVD, and try urpmi python, it pauses and requests the DVD.

If I eject the DVD and try:
urpmi task-kde4
it asks for the DVD, then repeats the error:


The other error that is displayed is, when doing this is:
"Use of uninitialized value in subrutine entry at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16.2/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/Net/DBus/Binding/Connection.pm line 257.

seems https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7657 should be reopen maybe in some way

CC: (none) => thierry.vignaud
Summary: "medium "Core Release" is not available => "medium "Core Release" is not available (DVD media)
Source RPM: (none) => urpmi

Comment 2 Manuel Hiebel 2013-03-27 13:18:15 CET 
in a VM it seems to works fine here
Comment 3 Glen Ogilvie 2013-03-27 13:45:24 CET 
That is very odd.  Any thing I can do to help debug it.

The hypervisor I used is KVM.  I can provide the exact steps I took tomorrow.
Comment 4 Glen Ogilvie 2013-03-27 13:47:34 CET 
when testing this, I did not update my sources during the install, when it prompts to at the end. Then logged in as root ( on the command line).. and ran urpmi task-kde.

What was odd, is that other things, like urpmi python, worked.
Comment 5 Glen Ogilvie 2013-03-29 11:05:04 CET 
Trying the beta4 ISOs, which were updated last night, it works fine for me now.

So, closing.
