Thanks for the hint; turns out I missed some packages maintained by debian-med-packaging and debichem-devel: Who exactly maintains how many r-cran, r-bioc and r-other packages currently in testing/stretch: joostvb@banach:~% for p in \ $( apt-cache search --names-only 'r-cran-|r-bioc-|r-other-' | cut -d' ' -f1 ); \ do echo -n "$p "; apt-cache show $p | grep Maintainer; done | \ cut -d' ' -f3- | cut -d\< -f2 | sed 's/^/</' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n 1 <harry.southwo...@gmail.com> 1 <i...@maintz.de> 1 <lifong...@gmail.com> 1 <ond...@debian.org> 2 <j...@debian.org> 11 <debichem-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org> 19 <lawre...@debian.org> 105 <debian-science-maintain...@lists.alioth.debian.org> 130 <e...@debian.org> 187 <debian-med-packag...@lists.alioth.debian.org> Bye, Joost
