Hmm, ok. To clarify, I intended to search for packages that build-depend
on cdbs and dpatch, but ara doesn't seem to support searching for
build-depends (or any other field in the Sources lists, but not the
Packages lists). For example:
$ ara -q build-depends:debhelper
(No packages).
$ ara -q Standards-Version:/3.6.2/
(No packages).
$ ara -q Build-Depends:/debhelper/
(No packages).
Does ara support this? It doesn't seem to work for me.
If it does, here is an example to list:
ara -fields Source,Package -table 'build-depends:debhelper'
Print the source and binary package names of every package that
build-depends on debhelper in a table.
