Hi. I am a blind Linux user attempting to install the source tree using 
apt-cdrom. I got the packages installed fine. However, when I go to install the 
source distribution, the package terminates with the following error: Handler 
silently failed. I don't think this is an incompatibility issue with my Cd-rom, 
because this is what I installed my initial base system and other packages 
from. I am using the following syntax: apt-cdrom add -a. I am running potato 
2.2r5 with the 2.2 kernel running under an Intel x86 architecture. Note: Before 
terminating with the error, the package found the source indexes and Cd label. 
This indicates that the Cd was being read. Could I have overlooked something 
which I should have done before installing the source distribution? Any 
suggestions would be greatly apreciated. Thanks in advance!
