Bug Description
[Impact]
The mirror method always dies with a SEGV. It does not initialize _system but calls a function that sometimes uses it.
[Test case]
Use a mirror sources.list entry like
deb mirror:
[Regression potential]
The fix is small, and simply avoids using _system if _system is NULL in the called method. There should not be any regressions due to this.
