Bug#928992: priority-extra-is-replaced-by-priority-optional doesn't catch some packages

[s3v <c0llapsed@yahoo.it>]

Package: lintian
Severity: minor


Dear maintainer,

 after downloading Packages.xz file [1] and searching
priority-extra files for amd64 architecture in sid:

 $ sed -n "/Priority: extra/p" Packages | wc -l
 272

I saw a little divergence.
I compared the result with this page [2] that reports 3578 matches
(archs different than amd64? experimental packages?) but some packages
seem to be missing.

E.g.

Package: allure
Version: 0.8.3.0-3
Installed-Size: 36600
Maintainer: Debian Haskell Group <pkg-haskell-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>
[...]
Section: games
Priority: extra
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Package: binutils-i686-gnu
Source: binutils
Version: 2.31.1-16
Installed-Size: 15253
Maintainer: Matthias Klose <doko@debian.org>
[...]
Section: devel
Priority: extra
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

maybe others... I have to admit that I have not checked all occurrences.

Thanks for considering.

Kind regards.
