This actually appears to be a problem with the Ubuntu archive, not
debmirror.  The Release files in the Ubuntu archive are missing hashes
for the Contents-* files.  E.g., see:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/precise/Release

Compare this to a Debian archive's Release file, which *does* list the
Contents-* files:

http://archive.debian.org/debian/dists/lenny/Release

I think there's a minor bug here where debmirror should be complaining
that it can't find Contents files rather than silently dropping them,
but the underlying problem seems to be with the Ubuntu archive.
