But it fails to redo the check for old packages once that a new debian-policy version is available... If anyone wants to try to tackle this bug, the code is in distro_tracker/stdver_warnings/tracker_tasks.py This would be easier to fix if Tasks had persistent data associated to them (which is planned as part of https://salsa.debian.org/qa/distro-tracker/issues/8) but it's possible to fix it already by detecting when debian-policy is among updated packages (i.e. returned by get_packages_from_events()) and then decide to reprocess all packages anyway. In the mean time, I'm forcing a full run on all packages.
