Package: ftp.debian.org
Severity: normal
While working towards removing the libgirepository1.0-dev package, I
tried running this command on coccia to preview what would be broken by
its removal:
dak rm -R -n -b libgirepository1.0-dev
(Do I understand correctly that this is the same command the ftp team
would run when the time comes to actually remove a binary package, but
without -n, running against the real archive rather than a DD-accessible
mirror, and with extra options to close bugs etc.?)
As I expected, this flagged packages with a Depends or Build-Depends on
libgirepository1.0-dev. However, I also expected it to report packages
like libreoffice that have only a Build-Depends-Arch on it, or packages
like wpewebkit that have only a Build-Depends-Indep, and it did not
mention those in its output.
Is this working as intended?
Thanks,
