Package: apt
Version: 0.9.11.3
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Starting with version 0.9.11, I can't use apt-get source with several
package names :
$ apt-get source perl coreutils
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
NOTICE: 'perl' packaging is maintained in the 'Git' version control system at:
git://anonscm.debian.org/perl/perl.git -b debian-5.18
E: Unable to find a source package for coreutils
As a workaround, I can do
$ for p in perl coreutils; do apt-get source $p; done
So this is not so annoying, but might be irritating.
Thanks

Can you confirm that this is fixed in 0.9.11.4 with the more general
pkgTagFile fix included in it?
In a quick try on my system it seems to work with current git, while
0.9.11.3 is broken, so I will be bold and mark it as done, but please
reopen if you can still reproduce it.
Best regards
David Kalnischkies
