Package: dput-ng Version: 1.15 Severity: normal A recent build of libdolfin2017.1 (i.e. dolfin 2017.1.0-1 in main) accidentally resulted in a dependency on a non-free package, libparmetis4.0. Consequently the new package was rejected by ftp-masters.
dput uses the suite-mismatch hook to check the target distribution for common errors. It could be useful if those checks could include the non-free dependency problem I hit against. It would be efficient if we could catch errors like that before uploading.
