Hi Philipp,

I see your point, but having archive dependencies configurable at that level seems to make the whole thing way more complicated than it needs to be for the majority of the cases.

We have an alternative, IMHO, enable pockets for some PPAs in need to mimic exactly what happens in the primary archive (only -backports sources have access to -backports binaries).

And for the time being, one can easily represent these different build environments by having multiple PPAs, which seems to have pretty much the same effect for uploaders and users. Do you agree ?
