Bug#71112: apt-cdrom support "-d mountpoint" but apt-get ignores it happily



Package: apt
Version: 0.3.14
Severity: normal

I don't have a /cdrom dir, nor any entry in /etc/fstab for it.
Since I have 3 cdroms, I created /ext/cd0, /ext/cd1 and /ext/cd2 entries.

I ran "apt-cdrom -d /ext/cd0" just fine on my 3 CDs, but when I ran apt-get,
it complained abount not finding anything in /cdrom.  There must be an
option somewhere to tell apt-get where to expect cdrom mounts.
