Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.35lenny7
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/build-rdeps
Tags: patch
build-rdeps will only find Sources files if you use "unstable" in your
sources.list and will fail to find any Sources files if you list "sid".
i.e. this sources line will result in a message telling you to run apt-get
update:
deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ sid main
where as this line will work fine:
deb-src http://ftp.uk.debian.org/debian/ unstable main
Both lines are accepted by apt and other programs that deal with Sources files
will handle either just fine.
The attached patch allows for the use of either sid or unstable in the
sources.list.
cheers
Stuart

thanks for your report. But this bug is already fixed in a newer version of
devscripts.

The attached patch seems.. odd. I guess you diffed the wrong way round? ;)
