ssacli seems to be missing from the mcp repo for Ubuntu Focal (does exist in Bionic 18.04)

[Helperton]

Hello, could you help explain if the missing ssacli package from focal is on purpose or an oversight?

It currently exists in:

deb http://downloads.linux.hpe.com/SDR/repo/mcp bionic/current non-free

If i switch 'bionic' to 'focal', it no longer finds the package.

Greetings!

Software like ssacli for Community Linux distributions like Ubuntu is delivered under the Management Component Pack (MCP).

If we traverse down the ubuntu path we can clearly see ssacli:

Yes, it’s in the ‘pool’, but does not exist in the focal Packages.gz.  To test this, install Ubuntu Focal, then add your repo, then apt update and then apt search ssacli.  You will get no results.
