Hi Erwan, see https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-rust/rust.git/tree/debian/README.Debian#n60

If everything is good, we should be able to just create that orig-dl tarball, then do the rest of the upload as normal.

Are you (or anyone else on this list) able to confirm that the following are correct triplets?

$ for i in armhf ppc64 ppc64el s390x mips mipsel mips64el; do make -s --no-print-directory -f debian/architecture-test.mk rust-for-deb_$i; done
armhf armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf
ppc64 powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu
ppc64el powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu
s390x s390x-unknown-linux-gnu
mips mips-unknown-linux-gnu
mipsel mipsel-unknown-linux-gnu
mips64el mips64el-unknown-linux-gnuabi64

If so, we should just be able to run

$ upstream_bootstrap_arch="armhf ppc64 ppc64el s390x mips mipsel mips64el" debian/rules source_orig-dl

it will create a rustc_1.xx.yy+dfsg1.orig-dl.tar.xz tarball and give you a list of things to manually do. After this, things should "just work" if we include it in the next upload - all the other logic should already be in place, to detect the necessary conditions to use the extra orig-dl tarball.
