End of May/beginning of June 2018 is when the cvs to git transition took place, that could have been a side effect. They were a bunch of commits on 2018-06-04 that seem like they could have fixed the buggy behaviour you've spotted: you can check 6e1be1595a987b4c8b38df41146890869855f6a5 and a bunch of follow-up commits if you like. Anyway, the clean-up you're proposing looks good to me. Cheers, -- Cyril Brulebois (k...@debian.org) <https://debamax.com/> D-I release manager -- Release team member -- Freelance Consultant
