I think we should understand how many things have been broken by this: if they're many we can ask for the revert and start porting the code, if we're a few just fix them. The PTS, for once, can easily be fixed: it would be enough to remember the most recent version read while importing Sources (but unfortunately I didn't have time to do that this week-end). How about mailing -devel and ask people to report breakages? (better if with pointers to the already reported bugs) Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli -o- PhD in Computer Science \ PostDoc @ Univ.

Bug#462934: Fix for this bug
Hi! Could you please consider at least a partial fix, with no message as to why the redirection happened? I really could do well without the message about redirection… Thanks in advance.

Bug#560697: qa.debian.org: old watch file used for DEHS for pam-pgsql

So yes, your package is not yet at the same version in all the architectures. I will eventually make it use the latest version no matter in what place in the Sources file is, but this requires more work than what I am willing to commit to DEHS right now.

Gah, there are multiple arch:all packages as well? That increases quite a lot the potential for failures. > > * APT proxies? > > * Stuff in devscripts?

No. It uses the last one listed using apt-cache showsrc (but that's broken anyway if you have unstable+testing in your sources.list).
