As you mentioned on IRC: cover the common cases with something machine-readable, and make it able to point people to d/rules get-vcs-source if it detects that extra work needs to be done? (This could be as easy as a flag in said machine-readable place) This way we get the best of both worlds. -- |8] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
