Well, I think this reality sucks and should be fixed. Uploading manually build security packages is a workaround which is error prone, as could be seen in the last months, where there were several uploads done in wrong build environments. If there are really such non-caring buildd admins/porters this should be fixed at the root of the problem and not by using a workaround, which introduces new problems and doesnt touch the root at all. regards, Holger
