The same should be done for os-autoinst and qemubuilder (cowdancer),
I think.  And while os-autoinst has been uploaded already, qemubuilder
is not.

So, I'm dealing with qemubuilder (or waiting till it's removed on Jun-08),
and request cruft removal for the above mentioned packages.

Thank you Simon for explanations!
