I'm trying to create a build environment for Lucid, and calling cowbuilder --create --distribution lucid
fails with the messages below:

Package cowdancer is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package cowdancer has no installation candidate
