They're not. They're part of (or at least associated with) very recent uploads, and their being there is a Good Thing[tm], as it means incoming.d.o contains source for the binaries provided there. The 1997 file, for instance, is xloadimage_4.1.orig.tar.gz, sitting alongside xloadimage_4.1-16.3_*.deb for several architectures. [Also note that the public HTTP-exported view of incoming.d.o has been little more than a link tree for some time now (since the introduction of "install-direct-from-unchecked-to-projectb" iirc) rather than the "accepted files not yet in the archive" it once was.] Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
