currently,
https://release.debian.org/transitions/html/haskell.html
lists agda as bad on armel, armhf, hurd and others, although it is in
state "uncompiled" according to wanna-build (and hence there is no
transition problem). It would be nice if ben could be more accurate
here.

It says so because agda (the binary package) is arch:all, so its
installability is tested on all architectures. Are you suggesting that
we ignore also arch:all packages when the package is uncompiled?

I think it would be the right guess in most cases, but possibly not all.

I'd
rather see a new predicate for this state, and an explicit reference to
it in good/bad queries.


That’d work as well.

I've just committed a patch that adds a ".build-status" pseudo-header, which can be matched against, e.g. in a "is_bad" query with:

  .uninstallable ~ "yes" & ! .build-status ~ "uncompiled"


Cheers,
