Package: ftp.debian.org Severity: normal Hi,
I am trying to do a source-only upload [1] of the new rustc. I prefer to do source-only uploads because I like to have the buildds rebuild my amd64 packages, for safety and security. Other reasons are documented on that page. With every new version of rustc, we have a new libstd-rust-$version binary package. This causes every upload to be added to NEW, which triggers the "no source-only uploads" rule, causing my upload to be REJECTED. IMO this is a bit pointless - the binary:NEW is not really a significant change, and if I wanted to "game the system" there are plenty of things I could do whilst keeping the binary package names the same. I can understand ftp-master wanting to do a manual audit regardless, but to turn this into an automatic REJECT simply because I didn't supply binary packages that I built myself, is inconvenient and defeats the purpose of the SourceOnlyUpload feature.
