This isn't directly related to pixbros, but last month I applied a similar patch that you offered for pixfrogger in #534063 which also added this new 'XS-Build-Indep-Architecture: i386' field. However, it doesn't look like it works as intended, because while it does allow the package to be autobuilt, the resulting package gets stuck in -proposed (in Ubuntu); see LP: #1585058. Do you know what needs to be done to get pixfrogger et al. to migrate properly? Regards, Vincent
