Comment 5 for bug 39630

Copied from bug 606075:

A good example of this problem is the "vala" package on vala-team/ppa.

http://ppa.launchpad.net/vala-team/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/v/vala/

The sources for vala_0.9.1-1~llvala1 AND vala_0.9.2-2~llvala1 are available in the apt repo. However, only the binaries for vala_0.9.1-1~llvala are available.

https://launchpad.net/~vala-team/+archive/ppa

However, on Launchpad, only vala_0.9.2-2~llvala1 is listed, indicating a failed build. This is misleading as both the sources and the binaries for vala_0.9.1-1~llvala1 are available via apt, and it is vala_0.9.1-1~llvala1 that will installed when the vala package is installed using apt-get.
