> Speaking of which, to be clear, the format here is space-delimited release names? (We should be more clever about releases whose names are substrings of other releases, at the very least so we can do things like precise-backports if we ever want to support something like that, but that's not a regression from the current code.)
Correct. I did not change the format from the nobuild files. I agree we should support that in the future, but this should not block on that.

Because then I get to shift out -A and re-add it? This algorithm picks the last .dsc file specified on the command line. It's not clear to me that shifting out the arguments, and then re-adding them is noticeably better.
