Using Simple-CDD to build lenny-based discs

[Alex Hudson <alex@stratagia.co.uk>]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use Simple-CDD to build a Debian based on Lenny, because 
the packages I want are mostly/only available in Lenny onwards.

I've got as far as creating an empty profile with no extra packages 
listed; this works fine when building an Etch-based disc thusly:

   build-simple-cdd --dist etch --profiles-udeb-list sid --profiles matrix

matrix.packages is empty, and I get an image from the above command.

Changing --dist to lenny above, and it fails with errors in a number of 
places, including "Unable to read UDEB_INCLUDE file 
/home/.../data/lenny/amd64_netinst_udeb_include", and then later 
complaining about missing required packages from profile default: "less" 
and "simple-cdd-profiles".

I'm building on etch with simple-cdd pulled from sid; and on x86_64.

Anyone any ideas?

Thanks,

Alex.
