Bug#615073: lintian.debian.org: provide (dd-)list of packages affected by a specific tag

[Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>]

Hi,

I have been thinking a bit on this and it shouldn't be very difficult to
generate a dd-list list for each tag.  We can use dd-list's --dctrl
option, which allows us to control the maintainer and uploader for each
package (without needing --sources)[1].

This pretty much reduces the problem to creating a "tag -> (maintainer,
uploaders)" mapping and getting dd-list/devscripts on lintian.d.o.

Uploaders: Han solo <han@solo.sw>
' | dd-list --dctrl
Han solo <han@solo.sw>
