This looks like you've run simple-cdd from a directory where tmp/mirror already exists as a reprepro repository, but with a different configuration (e.g. a run where bullseye was specified, and in the new installation, you're attempting stretch?). Indeed, simple-cdd should handle this scenario better. The workaround is to wipe out the above mentioned conf and db directories in the reprepro repository. > 2020-04-27 00:29:23 ERROR reprepro: updating package lists: To ignore use > --ignore=undefinedtarget. > 2020-04-27 00:29:23 ERROR reprepro: updating package lists: There have been > errors! > 2020-04-27 00:29:23 ERROR reprepro failed with exit code: 255 > > (Please note it does not seem possible to reply to replies to these Debian > bugs threads so replies may not be possible.)
