debmirror isn't really meant for mirroring overlay repositories - it
expects a full Debian-style archive, and makes various assumptions
about it, that do not hold true for a 3rd party repo like
pve-no-subscription.

I would suggest using another tool instead. Both reprepro and aptly
are supposed to handle such jobs -- personally I've only tried
reprepro.
