I suggest that the uploaded binary be kept temporarily, for two
purposes:
- Eliminate the wait for the buildd for the first architecture.
- Allow an automated comparison of the two .debs. This would take
some work to set up, but I would hope to detect a binary that
doesn't correspond to the claimed sources. Also incorrect version
of a compiler and different library versions than claimed in the
dependencies.
