The status of this bug is accurate.  Please see the linked merge
proposals for more information; the current blocker is me dealing with a
complex set of review feedback on
https://code.launchpad.net/~cjwatson/launchpad/+git/launchpad/+merge/373971.
After that, it will still remain for somebody to work out how to
integrate this usefully into livecd-rootfs.

As far as I know, nobody has yet worked out how to eliminate magic-proxy
entirely.  What the pending Launchpad work will give you is a mechanism
to query Launchpad for the state of a given metadata file in a given
suite at a given point in time, which provides enough information to
start the process.  However, until PS5 exists (and a significant amount
of development work on top of that) we won't actually be able to provide
snapshot archives that are directly usable by apt, so livecd-rootfs is
still going to have to do a fair amount of massaging of live-build, and
somebody needs to dig into the exact details there.
