Public bug reported:

debmirror ignores debian-installer sections when mirroring *-updates
dists.  I'm running debmirror 1:2.10ubuntu1 on Precise.

To reproduce, try to mirror precise and precise-updates like this:

debmirror -a amd64 -s main,main/debian-installer -d precise,precise-updates \
        --method rsync --verbose /tmp/debmirror

Notice that dists/precise/main/debian-installer exists, but dists
/precise-updates/main/debian-installer does not.

I think the culprit is this bit of code in the debmirror script that
instructs debmirror to skip debian-installer mirroring for any dist that
contains the string "-updates":

sub di_skip_dist {
  my $dist=shift;
  if ( $dist =~ /.*-updates/ ||
       defined($skip_installer{$dist}) ) {
    return 1;
  }
  return 0;
}
