[Bug 985791] [NEW] After installation from cdrom, apt-setup comments out the CD from installation

[Michael Casadevall]

Public bug reported:

After doing an offline install of i386 from a server CD,
/etc/apt/sources.list has the CD commented out. It also has the Ubuntu
archive in /etc/apt/sources.list present and uncommented (though I'm
unsure if that is a bug or not). Manually adding the cdrom with apt-
cdrom scan works, and allows packages to be installed, as well as tasks.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install i386 ubuntu normall
2. cat /etc/apt/sources.list, see the CDROM is commentedout

Expected behavior:
1. The CD will be automatically polled if internet sources can't be reached or updated.

Workaround:
1. Run apt-cdrom add after installation. This should be documented in the release notes if a fix is unavailable.
