Description

There may be old pulp_deb repo versions that have no package_release_components to go with the packages.
This could be because packages were uploaded with Katello < 4.12
It may also affect filtered CV versions created with very old Katello versions.

Such repos cannot be synced to smart proxy or be consumed by hosts with structured APT enabled.
Until we can provide a repair functionality for such cases on the pulp_deb side (which would be a quite complex DB repair script), the simplest way to fix this, is to add a fallback to simple publishing mechanism on the Katello side.
