Indeed, it is.  UDD doesn't gather the Package-Type information.  I had
been considering switching the default URL to
https://api.ftp-master.debian.org/madison and this looks like another
reason to do that.

In the interim you can use either “rmadison -u
https://api.ftp-master.debian.org/madison …” or add

  RMADISON_URL_MAP_DEBIAN=https://api.ftp-master.debian.org/madison

to ~/.devscripts.

Cheers,
