Package: apt-setup
Severity: important

Debian Installation manual says that "d-i apt-setup/use_mirror boolean false" will setup apt without network mirror. This setting doesn't work. Debian installer still asks for a mirror. In fact use_mirror is not boolean, because "d-i apt-setup/use_mirror string false" works.

I think the
problem is in '50mirror' file near :
"db_get apt-setup/use_mirror
if [ "$RET" = false ]; then

    exit 1
fi" or in some template.
