As explained in the support request submission form, this is the
support for Savannah administration, not for a project hosted
at Savannah.

Please address this request to the appropriate project tracker or
mailing-list.

A given file may be on an iso_file or somewhere else as a regular file. So I wrote

loopback iso /path/to/iso_file/iso.file.name
search --set=device --file --no-floppy /path/to/looked.for.file

When the file resides inside the isofile, the result is (iso) and not (iso,msdos1)

To circumvent this erroneous behavior, I only execute the search command after having tested for the existence of the looked for file inside the isofile

if ! [ -e (iso,msdos1)/path/to/looked.for.file ]; then search ; else set device="iso,msdos1"; fi
