britney will need to be taught to understand how to migrate packages in
a world with cross-architecture dependencies.
At the very least, things like "foo/i386 depends on bar:amd64" should
work. Might there be merit to also checking the values of the m-a
control fields and verifying that the resulting migration makes sense?

Adam

I think we should take this opportunity to get rid of the "empty"

There is no point in having the empty slot for PREDEPENDS; yours

I would probably go with the squashed diff (of the two approaches).
I already had the changes staged in a local tree, so I've pushed them
as separate commits.
I've just updated the live checkout and rebuilt the C module, so this
is all live now.
