Hello!

I have only main and universe components in sources.list[0] but some
dbgsym packages (e.g. seq-gen-dbgsym, zfs-test-dbgsym etc.) incorrectly
have section as contrib and non-free.

Here is the complete list of such packages I see in synaptic under
contrib or non-free sections:

$ grep-aptavail -n -FSection -sPackage --eregex 'contrib|non-free'|sort
b43-fwcutter-dbgsym
iucode-tool-dbgsym
libnvpair1linux-dbgsym
libuutil1linux-dbgsym
libzfs2linux-dbgsym
libzpool2linux-dbgsym
nvidia-settings-dbgsym
pvpgn-dbgsym
seq-gen-dbgsym
speech-dispatcher-baratinoo-dbgsym
speech-dispatcher-kali-dbgsym
thunar-dropbox-plugin-dbgsym
tuxonice-userui-dbgsym
zfs-test-dbgsym
zfsutils-linux-dbgsym
zfs-zed-dbgsym
$ 

This is a bug, right? Or am I missing something?
