It is probably not a good idea for them to parse them in the first place, but they do and we shouldn't break them if there is a better way. So we solve this issue for now by giving our deb822 format a new filename extension ".sources" which unsupporting applications are likely to ignore an can begin gradually moving forward rather than waiting for the unknown applications to catch up. Currently and for the forseeable future apt is going to support both with the same feature set as documented in the manpage, with the longtime plan of adopting the 'new' format as default, but that is a long way to go and might get going more from having an easier time setting options than from us pushing it explicitely. 2014-04-26T07:51:05Z Mahyuddin Ramli dotovr@di.blankon.in 2014-04-22T15:32:37Z urn:sha1:ced53a741a3a11da53920ee0bb86adb4e3a7c931 Modified by commiter to not publicily export the codename (as the manpages do not use it that way) and removing the included additional derives logic as it was not working (the link always exists at that point) and isn't needed as we do the special casing for debian mainly because it would shallow all distributions otherwise. (similar, but not that strong for ubuntu) Closes: 743595
