Refreshing the packagesets before the release and how?

[Jeremy Bicha]

I agree. Some of those component moves seem kinda wrong. For instance,
I think webkit2gtk should stay in desktop-core (instead of
ubuntu-desktop) and I think byobu should stay with ubuntu-server
(instead of moving to core).

I never ran the scripts when I was on the DMB a few years ago. Sorry.
