ok, that's something.

Well, there are usually multiple build logs, which ones are you
referring to as missing?

Seems like reprepro is failing to download some packages. Are you using
a caching proxy of some sort that might be out of date?

Try running with --verbose and --debug.

Seems like the version didn't get updated in setup.py in the last few
releases, Hrm. Need to implement checks for version in the package

Oh, that's interesting; I've never actually tried installing to
/usr/local... I either build the package and install it, or run directly
From the git checkout:

  ./build-simple-cdd --profiles x,y,z
