I don't think this number is bad per-se (assuming this extra_source_only just meant it has "Build-Using"). The bad thing in my opinion is when multiple version are kept around for a long time. I use this Build-Using in multiple of my package, exactly to be able for this kind of analysis (and in the end I hope globally fixing per release with (binNMU) rebuilding). Paul
