OK. I adapted the webconf accordingly. Due to different preferences of single Blend developers the toolset is able to cope with this but from my point of view it has (small) advantages to keep these together in case some changes might be needed that will affect all Blends. > > Done (to some extend).

I just fixes the syntax error in the tasks file. Please note that tasks files - in perfect analogy to debian/control files - allow only one Depends field. So you need to either mention all packages in one Depends field or alternatively separate the different Depends fields by at least one empty line. I fixed the gdl task and commited the change. Now the task is rendered properly. BTW, at http://blends.debian.org/_logs/ you can find the logs of the web sentinel with usually helpful information about problems when rendering the tasks. In the Debian Astro case it claims improper Authors fields which should be fixed in the according packages. In the python-astro case it is an mix of " and " and ", " to separate authors from each other. I'd (strongly) recommend to use " and " consequently between all authors. > Since the missing packages are (still) listed > in the science/astronomy task, it is not a problem with some package > content.
