Rosdep not finding packages from the ISAAC Build farm

When installing ros2 using the Isaac ROS build farm when ever I run a rosdep install I get an errors that the packages don’t exist for focal. However If I manually install them using apt they are there and are all from the Isaac build farm. For example:

() $ rosdep install -i --from-path src --rosdistro humble -y
ERROR: the following packages/stacks could not have their rosdep keys resolved

dynamixel_hardware: No definition of [hardware_interface] for OS version [focal]
open_manipulator_x_description: No definition of [ros2_controllers] for OS version [focal]

Is there a way to have rosdep find these packages?
