Public bug reported:
I am in charge of Ubuntu deployments at our organization, and in the
past we have used kickstart + preseed files to deploy a tested,
customized Ubuntu workstation. Although we do not have a huge number of
Ubuntu users, I perform a substantial amount of testing on a
configuration prior to mass deployment. Because of this all this
testing, I have found that using apt-mirror to create a local mirror of
packages saves me an enormous amount of time and bandwidth. This setup
worked with both jaunty and lucid. However, with maverick, copying and
updating the kickstart and preseed files does not work as before. While
the system configuration settings from the kickstart seem to be followed
correctly, the installer completely ignores the local mirror
configuration and downloads every package from the Internet.
