Hey, I've spent a bunch of time in the last few days trying to see if I can get the bordeaux build farm moving on core-updates and I think things are moving at pace now.
Builds are happening for 6 systems, with the only major omission being i586-gnu, I think there are existing issues with the guix-daemon in the childhurds not being able to stop builds which timeout, which leads to them getting stuck on builds. I'm not sure if there's an open bug about this. The other major issue that comes up every time there's a core-updates round is that the x86_64-linux bootstrap doesn't seem to build on btrfs, or at least milano-guix-1 which uses btrfs. I have to work around this by scheduling builds with --tag=filesystem=ext4 to have them run on other machines. There isn't a good bug for this, but #53416 probably applies. data.qa.guix.gnu.org seemed to be timing out more than usual for both patches and branches, so I've made some changes there and in the qa-frontpage to mitigate that. The core-updates page should now always load, although something needs adding so you can see how up to date the data is. 1: https://qa.guix.gnu.org/branch/core-updates Andreas has also been getting some additional x86_64-linux/i686-linux agents up and running which should help to speed up the build throughput.
