[Bug 1479961] [NEW] Does proprietary packages end up in the multiverse repo?

 

Public bug reported:

Hi,

We're about to package our proprietary application that has a dependency only available via multiverse package (VirtualBox 4.3.x)
I know that some users will disable this feature and I wonder if that will prevent them to install our app from USC.

In other hand, since our package is proprietary, won't it end up in the
multiverse repo, so that problem will not exist by definition?

** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New
