Package: mksh
Version: 46-1
Severity: serious

Dear Maintainer,

The handling of built-using is wrong. It is not meant to encode the
compiler used, nor binutils or kernel headers should be recorded there

It is specifically for building against -source packages and for hacks
like ia32libs where binaries are copied into a source package. Not for
'everything'.

What you effectively are doing is asking for a mksh rebuild on each
upload of the kernel, of gcc and what else you have put there. Imagine
if we all did that. Buildd power. or mirror size. or both.

/Sune
