OK, that's coming out of tools/make_disc_trees.pl. It's complaining about a missing Packages file that should have been generated earlier from other bits of the debian-cd run. I'm guessing something else must have failed earlier, but it's not clear. Could you log the whole run and share that, please? Maybe run inside "script", that's often easiest. -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "... the premise [is] that privacy is about hiding a wrong. It's not.
