Bug Description

If this is in the wrong location, please repoint this to the right package.

During an Installation test case for Ubuntu Server, using the 2015-12-25 ISOs on the test case for an Ubuntu Server ISO, it was discovered that after installation the /etc/apt/sources.list file has two CDROM lines present, which would rely on the installation ISOs. One is commented, but the second is not, and out of the box, apt-get and updating does not work.

Workaround is to comment out that second cdrom line which was uncommented, then updates and such work as expected.

Note that my testing on this was on Server ISO specifically, and Phill's issues were on the Lubuntu Alternate installer (and then traced backwards).

This bug was fixed in the package apt-setup - 1:0.104ubuntu2

---------------
apt-setup (1:0.104ubuntu2) xenial; urgency=medium

  * Fix mismerge that caused us not to disable the CD at the end of
    installation if any mirrors are present in the case of complete CD
    images (LP: #1529297).
