The source-only upload of perl_5.28.1-3 yesterday resulted in a mirror push where the new arch:any binaries (perl, perl-base etc.) were in the amd64 Packages list, but the arch:all ones (perl-modules-5.28, perl-doc etc.) were missing altogether. This caused issues for people upgrading their chroots, as for instance build-essential was not installable anymore. The situation was fixed with the next mirror push. The problem is visible in http://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20181207T214432Z/dists/sid/main/binary-amd64/Packages.xz I assume this happened because the amd64 builds were finished three hours before the 'all' builds, and the mirror push happened in between. ISTR there at least used to be a check where arch:all binaries are not exposed before the corresponding arch:any ones are built, but it looks like the reverse is not true? In any case, even the old versions (5.28.1-2 in this case) of the arch:all binaries disappearing seems incorrect to me? Thanks for your work on Debian, -- Niko Tyni [email protected]
