package: debfoster severity: grave As requested in irc:
The release goals for Squeeze have just been published [1]. One release goal is multiarch support, which, according to vorlon, in best case will already be in Ubuntu 9.10 (Feature freeze: August 27 [2]). The current multiarch spec [3] includes an extension to package relationship fields, e.g. "Depends: python:any". Such dependencies will lead to packages wrongly detected as orphaned by debfoster unless it ignores “:any”, which is the only one specified by now. I'm aware that deborphan suffers from the same issue and will upload a fixed package before Karmic's feature freeze. Feel free to file a bug against deborphan if you got too much time.
