Bug Description
In the 1.1.11 rollout, the ogre model was blown away, and all packages are now put in the "main" component, and build against {main, universe, multiverse, restricted} in the ubuntu archives.
However, the packages in the ppa that are NOT in main, ie {restricted, universe, multiverse}, are now never found (when the deb/deb-src lines are added to a sources.list, and when things build-depend on them). Thus, these packages never build (eg, the great kdebase-workspace blowup).
The solution would be to override all of the packages in {restricted, universe, multiverse} of the ppa's into the main component, and republish the Packages lists. This should be a once-off.
Thanks!

Ok, the 'mass-override' was performed this morning, so all PPA packages should be published in main component. Symbolic links remained in the original components and will be removed as soon as all references to the package become obsolete.
