this is unusual. it is certainly in the list of things to download.  by
default, it's handled by wget.  perhaps it failed to download from your
mirror for some reason?

you should set this using "debian_cd_dir" in simple-cdd.conf, not with
the BASEDIR variable. otherwise, tweaks made on the fly (if any) by
build-simple-cdd will not actually happen. or, simple-cdd with overwrite
your BASEDIR variable, and just use the default setting for
debian_cd_dir instead of your modified copy of debian-cd.
