Package: simple-cdd
Version: 0.3.11
Severity: normal

debian-cd allows one to build an etch CD using the lenny installer by
using a setup like this:
export CODENAME=etch
export DI_CODENAME=lenny

However if you put that in the simple-cdd config file you will have
troubles and not everything will work as expected (the first problem has
been solved already, it was #529424).

When DI_CODENAME is set and differs from CODENAME, simple-cdd should
install all udebs in dists/$DI_CODENAME/main/debian-installer/ (in the
mirror) as that's the place where debian-cd will look for them. This is
not the case currently.

In the same spirit, it's also a good idea to initialize your di_codename
with ${DI_CODENAME:-$CODENAME} to avoid mismatches, otherwise one has to
set both variables in the configuration. Or you could directly rename
di_codename into DI_CODENAME.
