Bug Description
[Impact]
* Bootable buildd images are currently built from the -release pocket only,
leaving them vulnerable to issues fixed by -updates and/or -security.
* MP: #387164 [1] should be backported to ensure updated packages are used
when building the bootable buildd images.
[Test Case]
* Inspect package manifest for bootable buildd images; verify outdated versions
of packages
[Regression Potential]
* updated packages could break current assumptions for bootable buildd images, and cause
boot or runtime failures, though this has not been seen in testing.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/Testing/ EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.
If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification- needed- focal to verification- done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification- failed- focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.
Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/QATeam/ PerformingSRUVe rification . Thank you in advance for helping!
