Did this cause the installation to fail in any noticeable way?

I don't know for sure, so wait for confirmation from someone who does,
but I suspect that the local distribution is for folks who want to
provide additional files for installation (e.g. installed packages) for
use by all machines at the site which use a local ftp server.
