That's possible, though not (yet nor in near future) against pre-existing binaries. (We lack the code for that.) What we can do easily, is build and upload dpkg to our repo and use it to build the whole Debian archive on amd64, which roughly takes 8 days for both sid+stretch, and thus roughly 4 days for one suite, if we disable building the other. (Which we can definitly do, especially if we don't disable building of new versions in that other suite…) cheers, Holger
