In the woody-branch i can't see make_paths looking in
/build/cts/boot-floppies/updates but only in

$archive/cache/archives
`pwd`/updates
$local_dir

The problem is: make check never uses make_paths() but only download() and
download() also never uses make_paths(). But download() fails if any of the
packages to download don't exist.

I added a copy-loop after the apt-get autoclean in download(). It works and
maybe it should be put in CVS:

*** boot-floppies/common.sh	Wed Mar 14 12:38:19 2001
--- boot-floppies.work/common.sh	Wed Mar 14 12:41:47 2001
