Neither LOCAL nor LOCALDEBS are in simple-cdd.conf. We manually added "export LOCAL=0" to simple-cdd.conf. But still got error. if using the defaults mirrorring tools(reprepro and > wget), they shouldn't be- it's not needed.

Tried building with all defaults. Still got error. and then add a profile with your > packages that are available from debian.

We did get a working *.ISO by using debian-cd manually with the local mirror that simple-cdd generated.
