debconf-utils packages is an arch:all package available in the universe.
I'd rather not inspect archive like that.

There is http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=debconf-utils that can
show the package is arch all and which component it is in - main, universe,
multiverse, or restricted. All four components are enabled by default.

There is also rmadison, which you can remotely query all packages from
command line:

$ rmadison debconf-utils
