Bug#801151: grep-excuses: ignore -w flag for contrib/non-free packages

[Paul Wise]

Package: devscripts
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/grep-excuses

The service behind the -w flag does not work with packages from contrib
and non-free. It would be nice if grep-excuses could use the other data
source for migration issues for packages in contrib and non-free.

For example:

pabs at chianamo ~ $ grep-excuses -w onionshare
Not Found

The requested URL /migration/testing.pl?package=onionshare was not found on this server.

pabs at chianamo ~ $ grep-excuses onionshare
onionshare (- to 0.7-1)
