Package: dpkg Version: 1.16.1.2 Severity: wishlist Hi,
it would be nice if dpkg-query could show the source package and source version for a binary, for example for use in the Built-Using field: Built-Using: foo-source (= 1.2) Maybe something like dpkg-query -f='${show:Source-Package} (= ${show:Source-Version})' -W foo-binary or even a special virtual field with the correct value for Built-Using could be implemented?
