package: ftp.debian.org
Hi,
this bug is for tracking this drama. Please don't close it, maybe reassign it
to a more fitting package. (And as a last ressort, assign it to "general"
please.)
Since some time (=years) there is broad agreement that we shouldn't do this -
where "this" is pushing binaries build on some random developers random
machine into the archive, yet we still do it and don't even have a clear idea
what the status and plan is to fix this.
I've had a discussion about this with some buildd admins and ftpmasters a few
months ago, so if the current status does not "magically appear" in this bug
report, I will dig that up and update the report... for now I hope for
magic^wyour update.
cheers,
Holger
P.S.: yes, for bootstraping an architecture it might occasionally be useful to
be able to upload whatever .debs - but that's clearly an exception and should
be handled as such.
