Package: devscripts Version: 2.18.2 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
obviously, see below, dd-list checks both the source and the binary package names when looking for the maintainer information. This caused some confusion. In the archive as of today, there is a source package ace that produces several binary packages but none is called ace. However, there's a completely different source package golang-github-yosssi-ace that produces such a package. Or, quoting the sources index, "ace" emphasized: + Package: ace | Binary: mpc-ace, libace-6.4.5, libace-dev, libace-doc, libace-ssl-6.4.5, libace-ssl-dev, libace-rmcast-6.4.5, libace-rmcast-dev, libace-tmcast-6.4.5, libace-tmcast-dev, libace-htbp-6.4.5, libace-htbp-dev, libace-inet-6.4.5, libace-inet-dev, libace-inet-ssl-6.4.5, libace-inet-ssl-dev, ace-gperf, gperf-ace, libacexml-6.4.5, libacexml-dev, libace-xml-utils-6.4.5, libace-xml-utils-dev, libkokyu-6.4.5, libkokyu-dev, libace-xtreactor-6.4.5, libace-xtreactor-dev, libace-tkreactor-6.4.5, libace-tkreactor-dev, libace-flreactor-6.4.5, libace-flreactor-dev, libace-foxreactor-6.4.5, libace-foxreactor-dev, ace-netsvcs, libnetsvcs-6.4.5, libnetsvcs-dev | Version: 6.4.5+dfsg-1 | Maintainer: Debian ACE+TAO maintainers <pkg-ace-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> | Uploaders: Thomas Girard <thomas.g.gir...@free.fr>, Johnny Willemsen <jwillem...@remedy.nl> | | Package: golang-github-yosssi-ace + Binary: golang-github-yosssi-ace-dev, ace | Version: 0.0.5-3 | Maintainer: Debian Go Packaging Team <pkg-go-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> | Uploaders: Anthony Fok <f...@debian.org> Now the result of "dd-list ace" includes the Go Packaging Team and the uploader although they've nothing to do with src:ace. In other words, got: | Anthony Fok <f...@debian.org> | golang-github-yosssi-ace (U) | | Debian ACE+TAO maintainers <pkg-ace-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> | ace | | Debian Go Packaging Team <pkg-go-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> | golang-github-yosssi-ace | | Johnny Willemsen <jwillem...@remedy.nl> | ace (U) | | Thomas Girard <thomas.g.gir...@free.fr> | ace (U) But expected: | Debian ACE+TAO maintainers <pkg-ace-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> | ace | | Johnny Willemsen <jwillem...@remedy.nl> | ace (U) | | Thomas Girard <thomas.g.gir...@free.fr> | ace (U) To avoid this, I'd like dd-list to use the source package name information only, at least as an option.
