I have done a quick check of our code, but AFAICT everything looks OK.

The template really is type boolean. Please make sure you have only a single space between "boolean" and "false".

Could you please run an installation with partial preseeding (so that you get at least one question asked before getting to the apt-setup stage) and adding a line with "set -x" in the script /usr/lib/apt-setup/generators/50mirror?

Please send us the syslog for your installation (either gzipped or only the relevant part) which should contain the debugging info.

Cheers,
FJP
