Public bug reported:

Two requests:
* combined reverse Deps and Build-Deps.
* be clearer that it works on binary packages unless src: is specified

11:16 < infinity> tumbleweed: This is just a documentation issue, apparently.
11:17 < infinity> tumbleweed: Or, it's an I can't read issue.
11:17 < tumbleweed> probably needs to say "binary package" so that it's more
                    obvious what the problem is
11:17 < infinity> tumbleweed: src is there in help, just cleverly hidden in the
                  middle of my terminal.
11:20 < infinity> tumbleweed: Okay, then once we get over my inability to read,
                  I think my only remaining complaint is that I need to run                   it twice.
11:21 < infinity> tumbleweed: Since I can't seem to get it to give me both
                  rdeps and rbdeps together.

** Affects: ubuntu-dev-tools (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Wishlist
         Status: Triaged
