Bug#986278: live-build now fails for buster when including firmware

[Daniel Reichelt <debian@nachtgeist.net>]

Package: live-build
Version: 1:20210330
Severity: normal

Hi,

since 21eff20ea3caec205568e7305732928fedd10b0a I can no longer build buster images including firmware:


-------8<----------
P: Begin scheduling firmware installation...
--2021-04-02 11:19:29--  http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian//dists/buster/main/Contents-all.gz

2021-04-02 11:19:29 ERROR 404: Not Found.
------>8----------

This error also happens when using the main ftp site ftp.d.o. It seems to me
like there simply is no Contents-all.gz prior to bullseye...


Thanks
Daniel
