Is the patch on your homepage or similar? I would like to setup a
daily D-I netinstall build with debian-cd once the core debs and udebs
are all there (and prioritize any missing ones).
The current script to create the netinstall cd I use works but doesn't
give the same result (like docs, help texts, ... on the CD).

Right, for the files lists. But that looks like a minor change that can
be easily reversed in about a week when the new structure is fully
populated.
