Bug#1110534: Info received ((no subject))

I tried an expert installation from a Trixie image created by live-build
and deliberately added "choose-mirror" as additional installer
component. The setup during the installation looked alright, it gave the
option to choose a mirror and the option to chose additional update/
security/backports repositories.
After installation and reboot into the new system I was surprised to see
that no entries had been added in /etc/apt/sources.list. The only entry
present was the deb cdrom: Trixie Snapshot.
This is expected. choose-mirror is only useful for netboot images which
need to download everything from a mirror. CD/DVD and live images load
installer components and install the base system from the installation
medium and do not have any use for it. I do not see why it is included
in ISO images.
