Package: qa.debian.org
Severity: normal

Hello,

Recently, some (random?) packages started to be shown as "removed" on
the PTS while they are not. isc-dhcp[1] is an example and is marked as
such right now. Other packages (like freerdp, clisp and sbcl) were
also shown as removed, but seem fixed now.

For isc-dhcp, the PTS says:

  This package is not part of any Debian distribution. Thus you won't
  find much information here. The package is either very new and hasn't
  appeared on mirrors yet, or it's an old package that eventually got
  removed. The old news are kept for historic purpose only. 

You can see what it looks like when it happens at [2] (thanks Julien
:p).

You may argue that "it might happen sometimes", but it's getting worse
than usual.

It looks like one of the mirrors in ftp.us.debian.org is broken then.
The source package was simply missing in the Sources file from unstable.

I simply reran the generation script and it's now ok.
