That would be because there isn't a contribs tree, thus no files to make 
a list of ... maybe there should be an empty one ...

Because it works fine on a cooker tree, it should of course have been 
tested with a snapshot of what would go onto the mirrors.

Have you tried just touch'ing the file? Or, first touching hdlist2, then 
packdrake'ing it?

If one of those works, this should be done on the mirrors until contrib 
is out ..
