Yes, I was expecting that kind of regression, see https://lists.debian.org/20151204222025.ga14...@home.ouaza.com So the 3 copies are actually: - one sent to ffm...@packages.debian.org (which forwards to ffmpeg_cont...@packages.qa.debian.org) - one sent to _a...@packages.debian.org to generate the news on the old tracker, I disabled the forwarding of this one to the new tracker. - one sent to ffmpeg_summ...@packages.qa.debian.org So it means that subscribers to the PTS actually got two copies of such mails... under two different keywords. We should fix this now. Dear, debian-release can you drop the Bcc to <package>_summ...@packages.qa.debian.org on mails emitted by Debian Testing watch ? This change is fine: - subscribers to the old PTS still get a copy via the "contact" keyword - subscribers to the new PTS get a copy via the summary keyword because the new PTS does its own classification and recognizes the mails it gets - anyway, I'll soon move subscriptions from the old PTS to the new one Once this is fixed I'll try to clean up the duplicate news entries.
