It still isn't working. I now get an immediate "bad mirror". db_get on mirror/http/mirror is empty, so mirror_root is still null.
Below a debconf trace with the new code (no default) and two debug log statements added by me. Boot in "auto" mode. It clearly shows mirror/http/mirror getting its variable 'mirrors' set, and just as clearly shows the following db_get not returning anything. At the very beginning the same happens for mirror/protocol and that does work, but that still has a default so we just see the preset default being returned. Guess this makes the earlier cloned bug to debconf more severe.
