Hi,

some lines in https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/autoremovals.cgi have the
pattern:

    foo: buggy deps bar, flagged for removal in X days

As the maintainer of foo (in my current case foo is src:botch) I was
wondering how it was possible for my package foo to depend on bar. I
generated the reverse dependency closure for foo but the package bar did
not show up. In #debian-release I then learned that bar is actually a
source package. Please adjust the above line to make this clear. The
fact that the line talked about a dependency (I assume that this is what
deps stands for) made me think that bar was a binary package because
there are no dependencies on source packages. Here some ideas:

    foo: buggy deps on source bar, flagged for removal in X days
    foo: buggy deps on src:bar, flagged for removal in X days
    foo: buggy deps on package(s) building from bar, flagged for removal in X days

I would've attached a patch but was blocked by #952521 :)

Thanks!

cheers, josch
