If one changes the architecture of a package from "any" to "all" but makes no change to the package name, does this require any special manual intervention, or would an upload that makes such a change go through as quickly as a normal upload would go through? Hypothetical situation: a compiled executable gets replaced with a shell script. Real situation: an architecture-dependent library packages gets replaced by an architecture-independent dummy transitional package.
As far as I can tell from my own experiments, the override file does not know anything about this, and apt-get upgrade/dist-upgrade are happy to upgrade a package whose architecture status has changed. I just want to double check to avoid an unnecessary delay in planning a package transition.
