Yup.  I filed it.

Unfortunately, none of this information has gone to
debian-devel-announce, which is where it belongs.  That's part of the
reason why master.debian.org keeps on receiving uploaded packages.
The incoming directory allows uploads, which adds to the problem.  I
shouldn't have to search through the logs every time something fails.

The message on master is only seen when logging into master, which
isn't necessary when using scp.
