Maybe not a bug, but possibly a design flaw: It seems reasonable to expect that a CDROM you can use to completely install Ubuntu should also be usable for creating bootstrap-images. Obviously the necessary packages *are* present; just not in a format/place debootstrap expects.

Regardless, this issue really ought to be spelled out in Ubuntu's debootstrap documentation.
