Hi! I am planning to upload new versions of some Go libraries, and before doing it I wanted to test that the reverse dependencies don't break. However, for these two I can't find any: # apt-cache rdepends golang-github-caarlos0-env E: No packages found # apt-cache rdepends golang-github-caarlos0-env-dev golang-github-caarlos0-env-dev Reverse Depends: # apt-cache rdepends golang-github-muesli-gitcha E: No packages found # apt-cache rdepends golang-github-muesli-gitcha-dev golang-github-muesli-gitcha-dev Reverse Depends: Why can't I find any? Why would somebody have put these libraries in Debian if nothing uses them?
Maybe because something used to depend on it; the dep got removed in a later version and noone filed an -rm for it?
