/home/wena/live exists and that mirror pretty well and was created
using reprepro.

I'm on Sid.

I stripped pbuilderrc to:
MIRRORSITE=http://localhost/sid
DEBOOTSTRAP=debootstrap
[note that cdebootstrap won't work since I don't have Release.gpg and
I don't know how to parse --allow-authenticated to it through
pbuilder]
...and am still getting the error above
What's interesting is that both "debootstrap" and "cdebootstrap
--allow-unauthenticated" work pretty well.
