It worked for me (on sid chroot). I had to mkdir ../debian-gis-live
(and I changed the mirrors). Only one live CD has been built.

I was working on something similar based on Xfce4 (instead of KDE) and
in French. So far only live-helper configuration tweaking. My work has
not turned yet into a script. I will try to sync with you (I am
thinking of the menu business...).

My goal is actually to build live CDs for every science field (for
DebianScience) and I have taken GIS as one of my first testbeds.

Best regards,
