As stated above, the full descriptions are no longer in the Packages files but in the Translation-en file. What appears to be happening is that when a Package changes description and that this change doesn't propagate to all architectures at the same time, then there is a package in a Packages file that refers to a description that isn't present in the Translation-en file. That is the Translation-en only contains one description per package even though there are multiple versions in the archive. > > > >I'm not entirely convinced this isn't a bug, but perhaps I'm missing something. > > Okay, it turns out I missed that s390 was removed from the archive. This meant the DDTS was trying to load an old s390 Packages file with the current Translation-en file, which lead to the discrepancies. I've added some more checks, we'll see tonight if they help.
