I see (and that you've fixed it). Maybe add this as a comment with the
local line, so that this information is stored and consequently never
asked again :)?

Yes: Some file is the source of 'for each maintainer, which packages
does he maintain', which is then stored in the extract file. I don't
know which file, Martin Michlmayer does. For example, you can see my QA
page:
http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?login=jeroen@wolffelaar.nl&comaint=yes
which doesn't have lintian as co-maintained package, while that's in the
archive for 9 days currently.

Martin Michlmayer said to look at it some time later (if I understood
correctly), anyway, he seems to know what's wrong and how to fix it, I
leave it up to you to make out who's going to look at it.

Edited IRC log excerpt:

--- Day changed wo feb 18 2004
17:57 < tbm> jvw: err, yeah, something's wrong with the ftp update
script; let me check
17:57 < tbm> jvw: ie. the sources file is out of date
17:58 < jvw> tbm: ah. ddpo.py should maybe check for outdated (>2days
old) files I guess...
17:58 < tbm> jvw: the file is up to date; but the mirror wasn't
18:02 < tbm> jvw: [...] I'll look at the other issue later
