Package: devscripts
Version: 2.18.6
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/dd-list

dd-list looks at the apt lists directory with a glob:

$source_files = [glob('/var/lib/apt/lists/*_source_Sources')];

This will break when the user has enabled Acquire::GzipIndexes to store
compressed index files since the filenames will be different. It will
also break if the filenames of the Sources files ever change format.

If apt ever introduces a compression format that isn't yet supported by
dd-list then it would also break.

A better alternative is to ask apt for all the Sources files and then
ask apt to decompress them using these commands:

apt-get indextargets --format '$(FILENAME)' 'Created-By: Sources' |
xargs -d '\n' /usr/lib/apt/apt-helper cat-file

This would also allow dd-list to automatically work with chdist and
apt-venv, which set the APT_CONFIG environment variable to a specific
directory that contains a different sources.list and different apt
config that is independent of the system apt sources and config.
