Dear Maintainer,

Could you add an option for dose-ceve to ignore the Extra-Source-Only
packages.

dose-ceve is used in ratt to find out the reverse build depends, however
sometimes it will pick up packages which are Extra-Source-Only.

For example,

dose-ceve --deb-native-arch=amd64 -T debsrc -r golang-github-xenolf-lego-dev -G pkg deb:///var/lib/apt/lists/*_debian_dists_unstable_main_binary-amd64_Packages debsrc:///var/lib/apt/lists/*debian_dists_unstable_main_source_Sources

It results two packages

docker.io/19.03.4+dfsg2-2 and docker-registry/2.7.1+ds2-5, which are
Extra-Source-Only. The latest versions don't build-depends on
golang-github-xenolf-lego-dev.

Thanks

Would using "--latest 1" achieve the same result?

Cheers,
