This was done in livecd-rootfs 2.781:

livecd-rootfs (2.781) kinetic; urgency=medium

  * Drop override of components for raspi images. The reference to
    multiverse is historic, all firmware is now in restricted where it
    should be; and raspi images should not categorically include universe,
    they should follow the per-flavor rules.
  * Drop use of deprecated apt-key.
  * Drop edubuntu and kubuntu-active, both obsolete in *all* supported
    releases.
  * Fix passing of components to germinate commandline (how did this ever
    work?)
