It's clearly not mandatory. Otherwise, your recent upload would have
been rejected, or at least we would see build logs for "amd64" and
"all" here:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=wxsqlite3

But I fail to see why people would wait for them to be mandatory
before doing them. I can only see pros and no cons.

For example, it does not only ensures that bugs like this one never
propagate to testing, it also avoids other type of mistakes (like
building a package for unstable in a stable chroot, or not building in
an up-to-date chroot, leading to wrong library dependencies, things
like that).

Thanks.

 I do know how to prepare it. What I don't know if it's a mandatory or
not to do source-only uploads.

Thanks,

FWIW: Soruce-only uploads are done with "dpkg-buildpackage -S".

You don't need any special tools or uploading to a special queue.

Thanks.

Package: src:wxsqlite3
Version: 3.4.0~dfsg1-1
Severity: serious

Dear maintainer:

I tried to build this package in stretch with "dpkg-buildpackage -A"
(which is what the "Arch: all" autobuilder would do to build it)
but it failed:

Version 3.3.1~dfsg1-1 built ok, so I suspect of the changes matching this
changelog entry:

   * Rework packaging to match upstream changes.

To avoid this kind of bugs being present in testing, please check
that both "dpkg-buildpackage -A" and "dpkg-buildpackage -B" work
(especially after packaging changes), and also please consider
uploading the package in source-only form, so that we get
pretty official build logs here:

https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=wxsqlite3

and we detect FTBFS in the "Arch: all" autobuilder much earlier.

Thanks.
