Public bug reported: In LTSes some packages are in universe in the release pocket and in main in the update pocket.
For example in focal: $ rmadison -s focal,focal-updates realmd adcli realmd | 0.16.3-3 | focal/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x realmd | 0.16.3-3 | focal-updates | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, i386, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x adcli | 0.9.0-1 | focal/universe | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x adcli | 0.9.0-1 | focal-updates | i386 adcli | 0.9.0-1ubuntu0.20.04.1 | focal-updates | source, amd64, arm64, armhf, ppc64el, riscv64, s390x When these packages are seeded but they have no reverse dependencies, for instances seeded in the live seed and only main and restricted are considered (for Ubuntu) then these packages ignored (unknown) by germinate and not added to the live session.
