Package: apt
Version: 1.1.3
Severity: normal
The apt versions since stable have a bug in which apt-get source fails
to find the source package when the binary package has additional
version information. E.g. the current gdb version in testing 7.10-1+b1.
Here are some reproducible steps for a clean version of debian showing that
stable (1.0.9) works and testing (1.1.10) does not. The bug report version
1.1.3 also has the error, so the regression happened anywhere between 1.0.9 and
1.1.3.
docker -ti --rm debian:{stable,testing}
Steps in both containers:
echo "deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian testing main" >>
/etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get source gdb/testing

Indeed – that was a problem in the parsing of the Source field letting apt
believe that the source version is "7.10-1+b1". More details in the duplicate
which was closed with in 1.2.2. Closing this one in the meantime.
No idea why I missed this report the first time around – but thanks a lot for
the report!
apt (1.2.2) unstable; urgency=medium
[…]
* parse version correctly from binary Source field (Closes: 812492)
