Maybe a check should be added to APT to flag a warning if there has been no
updates for a significant period of time? That way if a mirror ever does
that, its more detectable.

It doesn't have to have updated packages, maybe have something like this

Q1)
What's the difference between Build-Depends-Indep and Build-Depends?
I am creating a new package.
* The source package requires i386 to build and has many dependencies.
* The binary package is architechure independent and has no dependencies.
How should I use Build-Depends?
