If you give away enough usable information, then sure. Though! We have seen that, for example in bug #164182[1], that you filled ended up in a removal of the latest stable version of imagemagick on MIPS. We are currently a heavy understaffed team and we would not like to see this happen! We are an unsupported security architecture so the maintainers can remove anything but our keyword in that package -- that would make sure that the MIPS users will still have a stable tree and the other architectures users wont be affected.
