AIUI it does problem with packages built on some archs and not others: say I have a packages foo which produces only the foo binary package on amd64, but on arm it also produces a foo-arm package. When I make my initial upload, ftp master will be notified about the foo binary package only. When the arm build gets uploaded, the foo-arm package gets in the way. That's why I was proposing to still include all potential packages, just not the staged packages which don't appear in the unstaged build, and are thus never to reach ftpmaster. Samuel
