I had no evidence that it was fixed. The version I could access wasn't,
but I expected it should be, going by the dates in the changelogs. So I
thought I should report that fact.

I'm not completely sure how to do this. From what I can gather from [1]
I need to build my own installer image, which I'll have a go at.
I initially thought would be able to just "patch in" the updated
choose-mirror, but this appears to require building a CD [2].
Am I on the right track here?
