Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.64
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/build-rdeps

build-rdeps currently outputs package list with a lot of additional
information around and blockwise. This isn't very suitable if you want
to pipe the list of reverse build dependencies into some other
commands or use it in a script.

I therefore suggest a new option, maybe -l/--list-only which outputs
e.g. package name and component (and maybe even more information) with
one package per line and no additional output. Examples how it could
look like:

$ build-rdeps -l -m lemon
netsurf main Debian/Ubuntu NetSurf Package Team <d...@netsurf-browser.org>

$ build-rdeps -l
netsurf main

$ build-rdeps -l --only-main
netsurf

(For now I use the script posted in http://bugs.debian.org/299228 for
this purpose.)
