Bug#777346: grep-excuses: Search autoremovals too

[Ian Jackson]

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.15.1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

The patch below is also available in this dgit-history-based git
branch:
  git://git.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~ianmdlvl/devscripts.git#dgit/sid
  http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/ucgi/~ianmdlvl/git?p=devscripts.git;a=log;h=refs/heads/dgit/sid

Note that it depends (both contextually and semantically) on my
--debug option patch, just submitted.

I have not included here any updates to debian/changelog.

Thanks,
Ian.
