Bug#810303: dose-builddebcheck output breaks backwards compatibility in 4.1 dropping the "src:" prefix, worth NEWS?

[Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de>]

Package: dose-builddebcheck
Version: 4.1-1
File: /usr/bin/dose-builddebcheck
User: helmutg@debian.org
Usertags: rebootstrap

Hi,

I am one of the active consumers of dose-builddebcheck in unstable and
quickly noticed the 4.1 upload by seeing all rebootstrap jobs fail. The
immediate reason is that dose was formerly tagging source packages with
a "src:" prefix and now no longer does so. I quickly updated the
consumer code, but Johannes asked me to file a bug nonetheless.

Was this change intentional? If no, then close this bug with reverting
it. Otherwise, consider adding some information about the output format
change to a NEWS file displayed upon package installation. If you like
none of these options, this bug is not actionable and should be closed.

Helmut
