This is exactly the point that I didn't think about, all other points
were known. But sure, it makes sense that one should take care that all
reverse build depends on the package one wants to upload are built
everywhere before doing the upload as otherwise the great -common
packages will make stuff uninstallable. Thanks for getting this to my
attention, fortunately we had luck this time :)

I thought the reason why you didn't want me to upload libgnome at that
point was, that Gtk was not built everywhere yet and I thought that Gtk
was a build dependency of libgnome at that time (while it really isn't
and wouldn't make sense anyway).
