My partner encountered an unexpected UX during point release media
testing, which #debian-cd asked me to report as a bug.

Steps to reproduce:

- boot into expert install (we used text mode)
- accept defaults until "Configure the package manager"
- asked to choose http, https or ftp for file downloads
- choose https

Expected result: maybe one of these:

- be offered a list of countries with https mirrors
- or proceed directly to entering information manually
- or a 2-way choice between https://deb.debian.org/debian or
  "enter information manually"

Actual result:

- I'm asked for "Debian archive mirror country"
- the only option is "enter information manually", which makes it look
  as though there isn't going to be any reasonable default
- but when I choose that, the default is deb.debian.org, which is good
