[NTLUG:Discuss] Fwd: repository+SPM+Audacity

[Tony]

It appears your error is that you are still trying to use the cdrom as
one of your apt-sources. So in the synaptic package manager where you
chose the universe repository, lower down it has a section for the
cdrom. Uncheck that box. and try reloading your sources again either
via Synaptic or using the command line.
