Package: dpkg Version: 1.18.24 Severity: important source-only uploads sometimes include a _amd64.buildinfo (or other architecture). This sometimes causes problems as the amd64 buildd upload will include a file using the same name.
In particular, it breaks any uploads going to policy queues (e.g. security's embargoed, proposed-updates) and the sync of uploads from security-master to ftp-master. The same is true for maintainer source+all uploads: if the source also builds arch-indep binaries, the .buildinfo files from maintainer and buildd might end using the same name. Please don't include _amd64.buildinfo in source-only or source+all uploads. Just changing the name is enough to make me happy (e.g. _source.buildinfo). It might also be worth having an option to change the suffix of all such names (.changes, .buildinfo) easily so that buildds could use _${arch}-buildd.changes or something. Ansgar
