Hi Robie,
so as you know ubuntu-virt only generates virtual packages.
I never used is and only came by lately (to fix outdated dependencies), effectively all it "provides" is a one shot way to e.g. install all kvm virt related things e.g. via:

 $ apt install ubuntu-virt
And it has the option to split by -mgmnt or -server.

Anyway I think this is not important at all.
I usually rather recommend to use
 $ apt install uvtool-libvirt
Which pulls in all you usually need as well and the great uvtool :-)

I never touched ubuntu-meta, how would that look like - maybe like this?

But IIRC ubuntu-meta is generated by the update script from the seeds, not vice versa right?
So the change would be in the seeds instead of ubuntu-meta?

Also I think that is somewhat over-dose for something we don't expect being really used.
How would be the opinions around "just" dropping ubuntu-virt?
