I'd just like to point out that any solution involving selective package
building will likely be a nightmare to maintain at both the Launchpad
and Foundations level; we've always steered well clear of doing this for
ports in the past and we have nothing like the infrastructure needed to
control selective building in a sensible way (adding explicit
Architecture fields to several thousand source packages doesn't count as
"sensible"). Of course what you choose to *support* is a quite
different matter.
I would strongly prefer to keep the port building as normal, but
deemphasise it in whatever ways are useful to discourage people from
using it, and perhaps not worry too much about failures further up the
stack.
