that explains it. I should have checked the man page.

Indeed.

Thanks,

Given the command `build-rdeps python3-pygments`, without package 
dose-extra installed, I get a warning


  WARNING: dose-extra >= 4.0 is not installed. Falling back to old unreliable 
behaviour.

and it produces a reasonable 73 packages as output.

With dose-extra installed, the same command produces 1,748(!) packages, 
which cannot be true.


Most of them build-depend on python3-sphinx, which depends on 
python3-pygments.


In my experience, you almost always want --old.

Bug#968388: build-rdeps: with dose-extra, lists too many rdeps

2020-08-14 Thread Christian Kastner
Package: devscripts
Version: 2.20.4
Severity: normal

Given the command `build-rdeps python3-pygments`, without package dose-extra
installed, I get a warning

   WARNING: dose-extra >= 4.0 is not installed. Falling back to old unreliable 
behaviour.

and it produces a reasonable 73 packages as output.

With dose-extra installed, the same command produces 1,748(!) packages, which
cannot be true. I've randomly checked a few of their debian/control files and
neither had python3-pygments listed.
