The bug report was not very clear to me. I guess, from the title, that
the request is to show in PTS pages binNMU versions of a given
package. That actually breaks one of the fundamental assumption of the
PTS, namely that of being "source-based". As binary versions can
change from architecture to architecture, it is not clear to me how
the PTS can display them. For sure we don't want a big row anywhere
listing the different versions on each architecture.
Maybe, what can be done, is to add a pop-up on version numbers for
specific releases which shows binNMU versions only for the
architectures which have some. Still, doing that would require
downloading version information for all architectures, which are
currently not available, even though nowadays they are easily
available from UDD.
Would that satisfy submitter request?
Cheers.
