Package: debian-cd
Severity: minor
Version: 3.0.2
Tags: patch
If a newer version of a package wanted by debootstrap to install the base
system is included in the "local" repository, debian-cd correctly includes
it on the CD. But, when checking if the base system is installable
(function check_base_installable in make_disc_trees.pl), it fails to also
consider the "local" Packages file and thus incorrectly concludes that
base is not installable.
The rough patch below fixes this, but can probably be refined a bit so the
local Packages file is only considered if needed and the warning is avoided.
