Note that you can skip that part if you edit the unstable repository to disable the "binary" field. Most of the current features only require source packages and this highly non-optimised import of binary package data can be skipped. It's exactly the same reasoning that lead me to disable the parsing of Packages files for all the other repositorie (see commit 76d49846239497b3d867d7ba4f9a6af8c1ec64bf). I kept unstable only because it's better but if it really creates problems for too many people maybe it's best to disable it from this fixture until we improve that part... or only consider a single arch, possibly. > Maybe that would be useful but if you didn't get bothered by that, my > point was essentially that it is difficult to get started because of > this for a first-time contributor.

For the update part, we could possibly rely on jenkins.debian.net to do it for us... that would be doable since I would like to use jenkins.debian.net to run unit tests on all supported platforms (python3 / python2.7) and to run functional tests too if possible. But that's another story.
