package: apt version: 7.25.3 severity: normal hi, currently, "apt-get source" will refuse to run dpkg-source when there is an existing version of the source package in the current directory.
i think it would make more sense to automatically extract the newer source if the existing source is unaltered (or perhaps automatically merging). otherwise, i find myself manually running dpkg-source very often, which isn't too burdensome, but it would be much nicer if the tool were smarter. thanks. mike -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
