debian-users:
I downloaded debian-9.5.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso several months ago via:
https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/amd64/jigdo-cd/
Here is the local file produced by Jidgo:
2018-11-01 21:47:40 dpchrist@vstretch ~/iso/debian/9.5.0/amd64
$ ll debian-9.5.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso
-rw-r--r--+ 1 dpchrist dpchrist 671088640 2018/08/12 18:34:13
debian-9.5.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso
Here is the checksum of the local file:
2018-11-01 21:48:17 dpchrist@vstretch ~/iso/debian/9.5.0/amd64
$ sha256sum debian-9.5.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso
e3934b8dd67f31622f8d2bdb72e91d458c05b05d59b069695274c5cb617e821c
debian-9.5.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso
The checksum of the file matches the checksum from the Debian site:

I burned the ISO to a USB flash drive early today:

The checksum on the USB flash drive is correct:

An installation step failed. You can try to run the failing item again
from the menu, or
skip it and choose something else. The failing step is: Select and

Note that I did not select a mirror.
Apparently, debian-9.5.0-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso is missing the packages
required for a default installation (?).
If I go back and use a network mirror (my local Approx server), I can
finish the install successfully:
Select Continue -> Configure the package manager:

Can anyone confirm this bug?
