- secure 10y agoPartly this is because DCS is indexing Debian sid, in which multiple versions of packages can be present (due to transitions): $ curl -s http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/main/source/Sources.gz http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian/dists/sid/main/source/Source... | zgrep '^Package: git$' | wc -l 4 If we didn’t index Debian sid, you’d only get one version per package, but also the results wouldn’t be as fresh. You can follow one of these two issues: https://github.com/Debian/dcs/issues/40 https://github.com/Debian/dcs/issues/40 (at most 1 result per package) https://github.com/Debian/dcs/issues/49 https://github.com/Debian/dcs/issues/49 (limit by suite, where you could search something else than Debian sid) If you have any other ideas about how to address the issue, please let me know.
