Bug#672460: devscripts: dget fails to see sources.list entries

[Uli Martens]

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.11.6
Severity: normal

Hello maintainers,

while trying to use dget, it fails to do anything:

| $ dget base-files
| no repository found in /etc/apt/sources.list or sources.list.d at /usr/bin/dget line 347.

dget filters the repositories from /etc/apt/sources.list{,.d/*} by the
hostnames screenscraped from apt-cache policy. This fails, as apt-cache
policy mangles the hostnames, or rather, the port setting from the
hostname:

| $ apt-cache policy | grep -A 3 500 | head -n 3
|  500 http://127.0.0.1/debian/ squeeze/main amd64 Packages
|      release v=6.0.4,o=Debian,a=stable,n=squeeze,l=Debian,c=main
|      origin 127.0.0.1

As I'm using approx on my system the URI reported by apt-cache is not
the one actually configured:

| $ cat /etc/apt/sources.list
| deb http://127.0.0.1:9999/debian squeeze main
  [...]

thanks,
   Uli
