Hi, This list includes source packages with Extra-Source-Only: yes (only included because they are referenced by binary packages using Built-Using). See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=699268 for some context. A workaround is to filter on the extra_source_only column, or to use the sources_uniq view which excludes those. Lucas
