Package: ftp.debian.org

The latest upload of twisted dropped the (arch any) python3-twisted-bin
and python3-twisted-bin-dbg packages, while retaining the (arch all)
python3-twisted and twisted-cod packages.

The new version of python3-twisted is listed on Packages.debian.org and in
dists/sid/main/binary-all/Packages.gz but the old version is still listed in
dists/sid/main/binary-amd64/binary-amd64/Packages.gz

but the package files for each architecture are still listing the old
version.

The cruft report says.

* source package twisted version 22.1.0-1 no longer builds
  binary package(s): python3-twisted-bin python3-twisted-bin-dbg
  on i386
  - suggested command:
    dak rm -o -m "[auto-cruft] NBS (no longer built by twisted - based on source 
metadata)" -s unstable -a i386 -p -R -b python3-twisted-bin python3-twisted-bin-dbg
  - broken Depends:
    twisted: python3-twisted

(and the same for other architectures)

The new version of python3-twisted does not depend on python3-twisted-bin, only
the old version does.

I presume therefore that there is a chicken and egg issue here, the new version
of the arch all packages won't fully replace the old version because of the 
mechanism
to keep arch-specific and arch-all packages in sync and the old version of the
arch all packages are blocking the old arch any packages from being decrufted.

Can you confirm my analysis and clean things up so the new version of 
python3-twisted
can be properly made available to users of sid and (after passing other testing
migration requirements) is able to migrate to testing.
