Hello,

We've noted that the Packages index is not specifying the source version as it should since it differs from the binary the version:

~oem-solutions-releng/oem-approved-updates/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/binary-i386/Packages

Package: libmikmod2
Source: libmikmod
Priority: optional
Section: libs
Installed-Size: 360
Maintainer: Ubuntu Core Developers <email address hidden>
Architecture: i386
Version: 3.1.11-a-6ubuntu3.9.04.1

~oem-solutions-releng/oem-approved-updates/ubuntu/dists/jaunty/main/source/Sources

Package: libmikmod
Binary: libmikmod2-dev, libmikmod2
Version: 3.1.11-6ubuntu3.9.04.1
Section: libs

As you can see, the version in the Package index does not match the version in the Source index. What we expect in the Package index is as follows:

Package: libmikmod2
Priority: optional
Section: libs
Installed-Size: 360
Maintainer: Ubuntu Core Developers <email address hidden>
Original-Maintainer: Ingo Saitz <email address hidden>
Architecture: i386
Source: libmikmod (3.1.11-6ubuntu3.9.04.1)

Otherwise, we are unable to derive the correct source package from the binary.
