If you trigger a TriggerableScheduler this schedulers kicks off new and
independent builds (you can propagate properties in the Trigger step)
which are assigned to available workers.
In fact the build can be delegated to the same worker or another worker
depending on availability. So you should structure your build "chain"
independently and use properties to transfer information between
triggered builds.

Maybe you can make use of transfer steps to move your build directory to
the master and then download it on the package builders or even start a
new build on the package builders depending if you want to change build
arguments (Debug->Release).

Cheers,
Andrej
