The apport (2.20.11-0ubuntu27.6) security channel build haven't been caught in 
that FTBFS situation because it was tested against the former pycodestyle 
package:
Get:310 http://ftpmaster.internal/ubuntu focal/universe amd64 pycodestyle all 
2.5.0-2 [5092 B]

Title:
  apport-gtk and apport-kde install xiterm+thai as dependency (x
  -terminal-emulator)

Status in apport package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in apport source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * When installing apport-gtk (or apport-kde) on a non-GUI installation 
(cloud image, server image) as a dependency providing x-terminal-emulator 
xiterm+thai package is pulled in, which is not appropriate for most locales.
  My understanding is it was selected due to lowest number of unsatisfied 
dependencies.

  [Test Case]

   * lxc launch ubuntu:20.04 test
   * lxc shell test
   * apt update
   * apt install apport-gtk
   * Examine the packages listed to be installed: xiterm+thai is one of them.

  [Regression Potential]

   * In dedicated archive mirrors with limited number of packages
  changing that may cause errors due to packages missing in the archive.
  However, that's unlikely.

  [Other Info]

   * It is not affecting bionic, since x-terminal-emulator is listed as 
'Suggests' not 'Depends' there.
   * Original bug description:

  Vanilla install of Ubuntu 20.04 set to an Australian locale includes the 
"Thai X Terminal" package.
  This package should not be included.

  I noticed that it is also reported against Xubuntu and Lubuntu:
