in the pool structure the filenames are changed so that the original
filename $package_$version_$arch.buildinfo is replaced with one where
the $arch part is replaced like this:

ARCHITECTURE=$(grep ^Architecture: $FILE | cut -d ' ' -f2-|sed 's# #-#g')

or in plain English: with the Architecture: field from inside the file,
where the architectures are concated with hyphons, so that

Architecture: all source amd64

results in a $package_$version_all-source-amd64.buildinfo file.

And then strangely there are a few hundred cases of identically named
$package_$version_$arch.buildinfo files (out of allmost a million) in
the yyyy/mm/dd structure, these get a .0 suffix. And then there are 4
cases with 3 identically named files, which get a .1 suffix.
(This needs to be investigated why this happens...)
