Hi Charles,

I am preparing to ask for the removal of hundreds of packages on
architectures that are not 64-bit and little-endian.

- One bug per package;

if you want to automatically convert the email subject to a command fordak, you need to file one bug per package.

- fewer bugs, covering batches of packages;

If you know the corresponding dak commands, you can put them all in a bugagainst ftp.debian.org with Usertags: archive. Please don't add allpackages to only one dak command (similar to #1120999).
