Ok, great; that was also my expectation.

reprepro unfortunately can't handle multiple version of a package in one
repo. After a quick search it seems aptly is suitable.

Before filling a wishlist bug, we should think about what the desired
behavior is. Where should the .buildinfo be saved? How should they be
indexed?

For the single repo case I think the .buildinfo files can be either be
simply stored directly beside the .deb or in a buildinfo directory.

The more interesting question is how they should be indexed, and if the
index should be signed?

IIRC the plan for dak was some separate tar-archive with all the
.buildinfo files? Will it be signed? Is there some interface planed
where I can get a single .buildinfo?
