Indeed, at least some of these *are* false positives; there is nothing that prohibits the use of dashes in native version numbers, so I don't really think it's appropriate to mass-file bugs against packages which appear to be missing .diff.gz's until they've been verified individually. Here are some false positives I found; I have not attempted to make a comprehensive list. However, noting that you've managed to tag large numbers of core kernel packages as false-positives, I hope the reasons for not encoding such a check in the archive software are now evident to you... > doc-linux-html-pt_1999-12-4.tar.gz (Gleydson Mazioli da Silva <gleydson@debian.org>) > doc-linux-text-pt_1999-12-5.tar.gz (Gleydson Mazioli da Silva <gleydson@debian.org>) > kernel-headers-2.2.25-m68k_2.2.25-2.tar.gz (Christian T.
