Package: simple-cdd
Version: 0.6.6
Severity: normal
Version 0.6.5 introduced a checksum check based on the data from
the "extrafiles" file at the root of the mirror. Now when that
file doesn't exist, simple-cdd fails with a stacktrace and is
unable to build any image.
Arguably, the lack of this file is not a showstopper, it should
just generate a warning... and effectively there are many custom
Debian repositories without this file and you still want to be able
to run simple-cdd on them.
In my specific case, the Debian mirror is created with "debmirror"
and this tool doesn't include that file. But I could also mention the
case of many derivatives that just use reprepro.
Also it would be nice if simple-cdd documented somewhere its requirements for
the mirror and repositories that it can use.
FTR here's the stacktrace:
