It appears the following commit 2 years ago forces the packaging of amd64 and i386 installers. Since trixie no longer contains anything for i386, this is now a blocker.
The simple-cdd commit https://salsa.debian.org/debian/simple-cdd/-/commit/30373893ad206cdb7ecdabfc13d82ba9b316aa10 According to the commit comment, this is now required with debian-cd >= 3.1.36 https://salsa.debian.org/images-team/debian-cd/-/commit/8a8e6238 Simply commenting out these append lines in simple-cdd, does allow for simple-cdd to be partially unblocked. But once debian-cd is executed, it does try to pull in the i386 installer Error output: 2025-08-14 20:22:52,418 INFO Running tool /usr/share/simple-cdd/tools/mirror/reprepro 2025-08-14 20:24:19,074 INFO mirror/reprepro ran successfully, full log can be found in /debian/tmp/log/mirror-reprepro 2025-08-14 20:24:19,093 INFO Checking package file /debian/tmp/mirror/dists/trixie/main/binary-amd64/Packages using /usr/bin/dose-debcheck 2025-08-14 20:24:19,192 INFO Running tool /usr/share/simple-cdd/tools/build/debian-cd 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR build/debian-cd exited with code 2 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR Last 5 lines of standard error: 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR build/debian-cd: xorriso 1.5.6 : RockRidge filesystem manipulator, libburnia project. 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR build/debian-cd: E: No packages found 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR build/debian-cd: cp: cannot stat '/debian/tmp/mirror/dists/trixie/main/installer-i386/current/images/cdrom/debian-cd_info.tar.gz': No such file or directory 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR build/debian-cd: Failed to start disc 1, error 256 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR build/debian-cd: make: *** [Makefile:487: image-trees] Error 1 2025-08-14 20:24:21,641 ERROR build/debian-cd exited with code 2, full log can be found in /debian/tmp/log/build-debian-cd It would seem this may need to be fixed in both simple-cdd and debian-cd
