I found the reason: I always keep (kept) the cdrom medium last in my list of media (i.e. sequence in /etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg, as determined by the sequence observed when media are created).

In the past, urpmi nevertheless preferred the cdrom medium, but that has apparently changed quite recently. I have now moved the cdrom medium to be the first my in urpmi.cfg, and everything is fine again.

Is this a bug? probably not - I dont think that the way urpmi determines media priority is specified. But I think it is good to be aware of this fact, in case somebody else hits this kind of problem.

I don't think so.  MCC adds local repositories before remote ones.
But the user is free to change the order.
Which apparently now changes the priority.  (What I had always assumed.)
Maybe a short note in the display saying that the order determines the priority ?
