I realise this is a consequence of my request.

I would hope that it will take more than an extra upload to make him
hate you.  :)
  But if he does not have capacity for this extra upload (which is
certainly a valid issue), I am certain we can find another DD to sponsor
your -5 upload.

I realise that it seems like a small change.  But we are here exactly
because pcl claimed the -dev to be multi-arch:same compliant, when in
fact it did not comply with the requirements of multi-arch:same.

Yes, except for the fact that I would strongly prefer you reused this
unblock request rather than filing a new one.

Forgive me, if it seems like I am putting an unnecessary burden on you.
 From my perspective, I am getting 15+ unblock requests a day for
changes.  It is generally in my interest to not get another one for
approving a change that causes a regression.

Sorry,
