I've just prepared a patch supposedly fixing this, but I've never used reprepro and don't even know how it works, so it's just built-tested. We are now performing some tests, and will update the report once this is confirmed to work. (The preliminary and perhaps non-working patch can be found for now at https://www.hadrons.org/~guillem/tmp/0001-Add-preliminary-.buildinfo-support.patch) Thanks, Guillem
