I don't, but imho it should: Eventhough only the more strict tool warn
about it or fail to operate on source packages without a priority, it
should not harm anyone else to add it.

I'll open a lintian bug about it.

Thanks,
Daniel

Bug#909723: missing priority for source package

[Daniel Baumann]

Package: mmdebstrap
Severity: normal

Hi,

thanks a lot for mmdebstrap, it's wonderful.

However, I noticed that the source package has no Priority field in
control, which then makes it impossible to import the package into
reprepro (local backport).

Would you mind adding a "Priority: optional"?

Regards,
Daniel
