Maybe those tools should be changed to use pkg:source instead. That's the only sane option to support, given that we seem to use 'source' in APT in someparts, and that the multi-arch syntax is pkg:arch. And If I recall correctly, I wrote almost the same thing some time ago in another bug report asking for the same thing. -- Julian Andres Klode - Debian Developer, Ubuntu Member See http://wiki.debian.org/JulianAndresKlode and http://jak-linux.org/. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
