Thanks a lot for your input, Steve!

That's (kind of) what I tried in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/inetutils/+bug/2008789/comments/19 (in the platform.lunar minimal seed), hoping the other seeds would inherit the blocked packages automatically – which didn't work.

I didn't consider duplicating the blacklist into multiple seeds, as that didn't feel "clean enough". But it seems to be the only viable option for now. I've updated this MP accordingly to copy the inetutils-* blacklist into the standard & desktop-common and created [0] to do the same for the server & server-minimal seeds.

My testing [1] shows that if a package (e.g. inetutils-ftpd) would be seeded in ubuntu.lunar/desktop-minimal, it would still end up in "main", even though being blocked in platform.lunar/desktop-common ... Not sure if this is a problem? It seems to block only packages which are defined in the very same seed file which also contains the blacklist. I guess we don't want to copy the inetutils-* blacklist into all the seeds?
