--- Begin Message ---Package: gtkorphan Severity: minor To support multiarch, deborphan will on multiarch enabled systems print all packagenames (except of when --list-keep is used) with an architecture suffix appended. I checked if this change will break gtkorphan - it does not, gtkorphan works greatly with architecture suffixes. Whilst checking gtkorphan I noticed that it uses a colon to separate package names in the code that seems to be supposed to remove orphaned packages from deborphans --show-deps output. Back then when you wrote gtkorphan, a colon was a good choice as separator, but nowadays it is used to separate package names from the architecture, which can lead to undesirable results of such algorithms. The colon using code in gtkorphan_ops.pm is: my $orphaned = join(":",@orphaned); $orphaned=$orphaned.":"; I think it should use for example "#" instead of ":". Because the above is kind of fishy nowadays, I checked if the orphaned packages from deborphans --show-deps output are removed as seems to be intended. They are not removed, neither when used with a deborphan that prints arch suffixes, nor when used with one that does not print arch suffixes. Regards Carsten
