Package: dput-ng Version: 1.10 Severity: wishlist Hi, it would be great if dput-ng would check if a security upload needs the upstream source included when doing a security upload. This is necessary if the upload is the first security upload for an upstream version not yet present on security-master since upstream tarballs are not shared with the regular archive.
The check could either be done by looking into the changelog or by looking at https://qa.debian.org/madison.php or similar. This would make notifications by the security team about a missing upstream tarball (and a rebuilt with -sa) superfluous.
