IIRC d-i requires them to be in the Packages file. But I don't think it is so problematic as you write. One could do multiple suites, and merge them just before apt writes the packages file, i.e. a for arch in arches; do cat /org/ftp.debian.org/database/dists/stable_r0_main_debian-installer_binary-$arch.list /org/ftp.debian.org/database/dists/stable_main_debian-installer_binary-$arch.list > /org/ftp.debian.org/database/dists/stable_full_main_debian-installer_binary-$arch.list ; done So, for all of dak, the packages life in different suites. Just for the users, they're in the same (perhaps a "sort -u" would be better than a cat, however :).
