Package: dfsbuild
Version: 1.0.2.0
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

I think it would be a useful feature to make downloading the package files (the first call to cdebootstrap) optional. Basically, on a CD which won't be used as installation CD, the package files are useless and only take precious space. Also, cdebootstrap will happily bootstrap a system without the need of local mirror, and, if you are for example using apt-cacher, it won't be any slower.

The needed steps to implement this are: allow empty "dlrepos", pass the real mirror to cdebootstrap when bootstraping (maybe conditionally) and conditionally skip the step of copying the local repository to the target.

What do you think about this?

Regards
    Jiri Palecek
