Hi Otto
Getting the list of source packages with a particular file in them can
be done by apt-file (see "--index-names dsc").
sources.debian.org can provide single files - you need an API call to
find the correct URL for the file first. I don't know if the service
admins would get upset at 1655 files being downloaded in the following
fashion.
apt-file search --index-names dsc --package-only debian/gbp.conf |
while read pkg; do
echo -n $pkg
url=$(curl -s
https://sources.debian.org/api/src/zzuf/0.15-4/debian/gbp.conf/ | jq -r
.raw_url)
curl -s https://sources.debian.org/$url > $pkg
echo .
done
(takes 1-2s per source package it seems)
sources.d.o can also do lookups by file sha256sum. The simple 2-line
gbp.conf that sets debian/master is in 183 source packages according to:
https://sources.debian.org/api/sha256/?checksum=c4a26b58ec236eab6919435af0267c29840191a97beeb3caa4712e42a6d51be8
which might permit some pre-filtering of the list of packages to inspect.

Stuart
