This happens, for example, when the later upload FTBFS on some architectures. In this case, it appears to be due to the fact that the installation- guide-mips binary package was removed in the most recent upload: $ dak ls installation-guide -s unstable -S | grep -v 20200715 installation-guide | 20191229+rebuild1 | unstable | source installation-guide-mips | 20191229+rebuild1 | unstable | all That's listed in the cruft report, with no reverse-dependencies, so should get removed next time someone from the FTP Team processes the report. At that point, the older source version will also be automatically removed by archive maintenance processes. Regards, Adam
