juliank - No. Our "overly complex" build must support environments without direct access to the ubuntu servers. Therefore we download all needed Ubuntu packages as a front-end step, putting them in an IBM-internal archive. At build time, reprepro is used to put them in to a local filesystem repo which then feeds debootstrap. The front-end step certainly downloads from focal-updates, always using apt-get download.
