The issue this bug was originally about debmirror failing when using debian-installer was resolved in debmirror version 1:1.0.1 which has been available since Lucid. Furthermore, I tested this using the following command with debmirror from Natty:
(natty-i386)root@flash:/tmp/debmirror-2.4.6ubuntu1# debmirror --host=ubuntu.osuosl.org --method=http --dist=karmic --section=multiverse,main/debian-installer --ignore-release-gpg ../crap/
gpgv: keyblock resource `/root/.gnupg/trustedkeys.gpg': file open error

gpgv: Can't check signature: public key not found
As you'll note I received no errors during the mirroring process. Subsequently, I am setting the bug report to Fix Released.
