Hi Daniel,
As far as we know, the only real issue currently is the -0ubuntuX one:
when there are only -0ubuntuX changelog entries in the Ubuntu changelog,
DaD doesn't find the base version and thus fails to create correctly the
patches. Albin has written a fix, which we just need to test now.
For the packages that have been wrongly synced... a MOTU hopeful need an
ACK by a MOTU and a MOTU should be responsible for the syncs he
requests/acks. For these 0ubuntuX only packages, DaD currently produces
an empty .patch for the Ubuntu changes... a MOTU should easily
understand that it's broken.
Maybe another issue, but which is not on our side, is when the base
version of the package is not available on snapshot.debian.net: then
it's the same story as 0ubuntuX...
