so, as I understand it, packages like clamav, spamassassin and others that
are in -updates may not get to main archive with a point release?
Is there anything other needed to get them in?
iirc, the -updates (formerly called volatile) was created to contain
packages that really need updates during distribution lifecycle, just like
antiviruses, spam filters and alike.
They should not be lost.
In the case of jessie, it appears there was still at least an old
kernel package in there.
luckily, nothing important.
