Does this not mean that there ought to be a more convenient way for users to discover that they need to activate an additional repository (say, by somehow providing "pointers" from dummy meta "packages" within the main archive towards other repos, or else via some tasks-like mechanism or some such) and a user-friendly way of enabling such repos ? To provide this infrastructure is surely out of scope for Debian Med proper but seems to be a useful target for Blends as such but needs to be implemented in core Debian.
