** Summary changed:

- debmirror try to mirror section main/debian-installer on all dists
+ missing main/debian-installer in repo causes debmirror to fail

** Description changed:

- When you try to create a mirror that include:
- --dist=dapper,dapper-updates,dapper-security
+ Debmirror can be used to create a local mirror which in turn can be used
+ for netboot based installation in a LAN.
+ 
+ When you try to create a mirror that includes:
+ 
+ --dist=feisty,feisty-updates,feisty-security
  and
  --section=main,restricted,universe,multiverse,main/debian-installer
  
- debmirror fails:
- "Won't mirror without 
dists/dapper-security/main/debian-installer/binary-i386/Packages.gz signature 
in Release at /usr/bin/debmirror line 1300."
+ debmirror fails with a "HTTP 404" error.
  
- cause "main/debian-installer" is only presente on dists dapper, the same
- happens for breezy until a few days, but it seens some security/updates
- appear for the debian-installer, and dists/breezy-security/main/debian-
- installer was created.
+ The "main/debian-installer" section is needed for netboot installations.
+ When Feisty was started (or fro that matter dapper, edgy), the main
+ /debian-installer section was only present in feisty (but not in fesity-
+ updates, feisty-security....).
+ 
+ IMHO, this is not an issue with debmirror and creating the "main/debian-
+ installer" section for all the repositories on the server, by default,
+ will resolve the issue.
