[Bug 1453330] [NEW] pull-debian-source not getting source for binary because DDE is dead

[Logan Rosen]

Public bug reported:

Errors like the following are happening because Debian's DDE [1] is dead
[2]:

logan at logan-VMware:~$ pull-debian-source d-rats
pull-debian-source: Error: Unable to retrieve package information from DDE: http://dde.debian.net/dde/q/udd/dist/d:debian/r:sid/p:d-rats/?t=json (<urlopen error [Errno -2] Name or service not known>)
pull-debian-source: Error: Unable to find d-rats in Debian suite "sid".

Maybe someone would be willing to host/maintain a new instance of DDE?
Or is there another way to programmatically grab the Debian package
version data?
