In my opinion, as main/debian-installer is not a section which is
present all the time on all the dists, debmirror should have a
condictional that check if exist.
The other option is to make madatory for the archive to have
dists/*/main/debian-installer even when there is any packages for it.
I don't know if you don 't see the problem here, but the thing is, that
with the actual debmirror you have to separate in diference directory
each dists, in order to be able to mirror main/debian-installer:
Means that you have this:
ubuntu
dists
dapper
main
debian-installer
restricted
universe
multiverse
ubuntu-security
dists
dapper-security
main
restricted
...
...
...
Instead of:
ubuntu
dists
dapper
main
debian-installer
restricted
universe
multiverse
dapper-security
main
restricted
...
...
...
BTW, I write a mail to the author and this was his response:
"You have to edit the script so it knows where to skip non-existing
sections. Debmirror was never written to handle different sections per
suite.
In line 631 add for example
next if ($section =~ /debian-installer/ && $dist =~ /.*-security/);
