Title:
Ubuntu 19.10: "Cdrom" to "Physical media"
Status in python-apt package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Do this: open the app Software & Updates > select first tab named
Ubuntu Software (if not already by default) > observe section
Installable from CD-ROM/DVD
In those good ol' days, Ubuntu was installable only from a CD and
later from a DVD. Nowadays, USB thumb drives are superceding this,
which makes the whole string wrong, even the title.
So, I propose this:
Installable from physical media
Physical media with Ubuntu [...]
This makes it future-proof as well, since god-knows-what is going to
exist in the future to boot Ubuntu from, but it will be physical media
for sure.
Care to fix this? Also, I would gladly make a PR request to speed up
the process (provided you tell me how).
