Hi! I was mightily confused when I saw that supposedly dpkg 1.17.12, which had an RC bug filed and had not spent enough time to transition had “migrated” [M], w/o any sign of MIGRATION mail, nor any release team hint directive.
This is what rmadison has to say about this: ,--- dpkg | 1.17.10 | jessie | source, amd64, armel, armhf, i386, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, s390x dpkg | 1.17.13 | sid | source, amd64, arm64, armel, armhf, hurd-i386, i386, kfreebsd-amd64, kfreebsd-i386, mips, mipsel, powerpc, ppc64el, s390x, sparc `--- The Sources for jessie do contain both versions, 1.17.10 and 1.17.12 with an Extra-Source-Only:yes field, due to at least deets and the recently introduced Built-Using in debsig-verify. The following are probably issues with the QA codebase, it lists as migrated when that's not true: (thinks that testing is 1.17.12) <https://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=guillem> [M] <https://packages.qa.debian.org/d/dpkg.html> <https://packages.debian.org/search?searchon=sourcenames&keywords=dpkg> (thinks that source is 1.17.12 and binaries 1.17.10, half-true I guess) <https://packages.debian.org/jessie/dpkg> (1.17.10) <https://packages.debian.org/source/jessie/dpkg> (1.17.12) This is part of the release team, which looks wrong: (thinks it's migrating from 1.17.12 to 1.17.13) <https://release.debian.org/migration/testing.pl?package=dpkg> But I've not checked if there are other similar assumptions in other places, for example britney. If this analysis seems right I can probably file some bug reports, and I guess the way to fix this would be to ignore any source that is marked Extra-Source-Only:yes? Or maybe exposing such packages in the same Sources file breaks too many assumptions and might need to be moved to a different Sources file? dunno.
