Anyway, it's always good to write something before doing much stuff and sometimes even afterwards. But I guess the best way would have been to simply add a lintian check for this and not start bug reporting at all; as the builds do not fail because the | not+linux-gnu is ignored if the first one is available (i.e. libgdu-dev | not+linux-gnu installs libgdu-dev on all linux architectures [unless someone previously installed typehandling]). > >And you could have waited with this mass bug filing until we have APT > >0.7.26 in place, because apt-get source will be broken for every package > >using this. > Why 'source' ?
