Well, you are right.  I guess it was kicked due some Dependencies.
However, it should show up in Suggests at least.  I understood you like
it would have been missing also from Suggests (but may be I
missunderstood).

 

Yes you right, ginkgocadx in the above case does not appear into Suggests, when I join the packages table I explicitly use releases.role='testing' (or any other role) so only packages for this role appear. So should I include such  packages(which are available for some architectures in debian/main but not in the selected role(release) ) like that into Suggests? If yes I should change the sql of sec-blend-gen-control then.

Kind regards
