Indeed that way it works. I'm pretty sure it worked without
configure-apt in the pas though?

Anyway if --apt-mirror doesn't do anything without --configure-apt
shouldn't it imply the later? or at least print a BIG warning in the
non-working configuration (+ manpage fix)?

Thanks for the quick response!
