Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: qa.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: udd

Hi,

[I wasn't exactly sure howto report a bug against UDD. There is a udd
package in the BTS, but the BTS advises me to not file any bugs aginst
it]

UDD seems to have have empty 'origin' fields in the package table, e.g.
see (ran on Alioth):

udd=> SELECT origin from packages where package = 'fslview';
(35 rows) -- all empty

whereas the ubuntu package table has a proper 'Ubuntu' instead:

udd=> SELECT origin from ubuntu_packages where package = 'fslview';
 origin 
--------
 Ubuntu
 Ubuntu
 Ubuntu
 Ubuntu
 Ubuntu
 Ubuntu
 Ubuntu
 Ubuntu
(8 rows)


I guess 'packages" should have 'Debian' in its origin fields.

Thanks,

Michael

The origin column contains the value of the Origin: field in the
Packages field. It's true that it's empty for most packages, but some
packages have starting shipping with "Origin: debian" or "Origin:
Debian".

UDD tries to stick with the data made available from the data sources,
without correcting it, unless it is so wrong that it makes it impossible
to import. So I don't want to change that behaviour for Origin:.

If you want to reliably know the origin of a package, you should look at
the distribution and release columns.
