Hi again! [ I just had this drafted around, and though I just update and send it out as a status update. ]

This was in dpkg 1.18.23. An implementation detail though, even if unfortunate. * Broken dependency recursor in dpkg-genbuildinfo The dependency traversal in dpkg-genbuildinfo is pretty much broken for many/most Multi-Arch cases. But the same applies to dpkg-checkbuilddeps and the Dpkg::Deps perl module. This needs major rework and is in a way a pre-existing problem, and in any case an implementation detail. > > I'll probably do some of the fixes already and bump Format to 0.2 > > and after the discussion settles we can perhaps do a 0.3, and see how > > it goes, and iterate until it looks good, at which point we'd declare > > it 1.0, ideally before the freeze. :) > > So given the above, I've queued a minimal change declaring the format > 1.0 for dpkg 1.18.23 or .24, please shout if you see any additional > problem or blocker. This has happened now, given that the above are implementation details, and do not really affect the format.
