Package: simple-cdd
Version: 0.6.8
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

I'm using simple-cdd to build an installer which includes non-free firmware.

I find that the firmware is included in the installer when it is built when 
running on Debian 10, but the firmware is not included in the installer when it 
is built when running on Debian 11.

The result is that I can successfully run the installer on a Thinkpad T440 if 
the installer is built under Debian 10, but an installer built under Debian 11 
when run on the same Thinkpad T440 will ask for missing firmware to be provided 
before it reaches the installer screens which ask for a network to be selected 
and wifi credentials.

My profiles/<profile_name>.packages file has just one line:
firmware-iwlwifi

On Debian 11, when I look in 
<project_name>/tmp/mirror/pool/non-free/f/firmware-nonfree/, I see the 
firmware-iwlwifi_20210315-3_all.deb package.

But when I look in <project_name>/tmp/cd-build/bullseye/CD1/firmware/, all I 
see is a dep11/ directory, and I don't see the firmware file.

I don't know enough to know if this is an upstream problem, so I thought I'd 
report it here in the first instance.

If it helps, the project I'm using simple-cdd in is quite a simple one and you 
can see it here: https://github.com/countermeasure/basic-box

Cheers!
