"pure-jessie" has no way of knowing that the packages you refer to exist.

No. It might well fail on a machine with jessie-proposed-updates in the sources.list, but that's to be expected sometimes, as the arch:all packages will often be available before those of some architectures where the binary packages are built on the buildds.
