Actually, there could be another option: - by default, throw away all binary debs on uploads - there is a special field in the .changes file (automatically set by buildds) to tell dak to keep the debs e.g. Keep-Binaries: yes That way people can still upload in cases where the current build infrastructure fails, but in the vast majority of cases where that's not a problem this wouldn't happen. And for packages where this does fail, just add the field to d/control (with XC- prefix), so you don't need to think about that at each upload. Thoughts? Regards, Christian
