Well... I'm not using simple-cdd currently, but I think you can try
doing

use_security_mirror="no"

In your profile's conf file.

Well, this error:

ERROR: missing required packages from profile default:  simple-cdd-profiles

I've always got. What I've done was download simple-cdd-profiles from
repository, put it in
a directory and use the --local-packages pointing to that directory. Maybe using
'--extra-udeb-dist squeeze' works, but I do not remember if I tried.

Remember that simple-cdd is a kind of 'wrapper' to many other tools
and technologies. So it
relies over them. The error (line 447)

find: `/home/fabrice/Desktop/cd/vanillux-s-cdd/tmp//cd-build/stable/CD1/pool':
No such file or directory

should be that d-i was not pulled from repository, as said on line 16-17:

http://apt.vanillux.org/vanillux/dists/stable/main/installer-amd64/current/images/cdrom/:
2011-07-19 00:04:40 ERROR 404: Not Found.

So, you should investigate every problem with attention. Sometimes
debugging build-simple-cdd script
(running it with bash's -x option) helps :-)
