- When installing from a netinst or single CD, the install could be
  inconsistent when some binary packages from an updated source package are
  included on the CD but others are taken from a mirror.
  This could be solved by having apt-setup add p-u to the sources.list (and
  maybe remove it again during finish-install), but that would need to be
  implemented. Should be simple to trigger this by having d-cd add a file
  in the .disk/ directory.
  Seems like a lot of overhead though given that we'd probably also need
  to add a few dialogs to inform/warn users.
