It looks like that the archive has now been built, and that only newly uploaded packages, and packages that Dep-Wait on Failed builds remains. Maybe is it time to authorize amd64 uploads ? Moreover, looking at [1], there is a quite rather impressive list of package that FTBFS since ages, that are apparently unmaintained, and whose maintainer looks like to be MIA since more than a year (all packages are the same version as in stable, or NMU-ed, and a lot of important — or higher severities — opened bugs for more than a year, not to mention the ones that are tagged 'patch'). e.g. looking at the bugs which number is strictly less than #300000 gives already a list of unmaintained and bitrotten packages. Some even don't deserve to be NMU-ed and should IMHO be removed from the archive. Some other are buggy enough to be barely usable, and would need a maintainer to fix them. I suppose there is some stubs here to do some MIA-hunt and cleaning of the archive.
