Ingo, what was the last working one, something from etch, 2.6.something I guess? > Is it easy to trigger? No, unfortunately(?) not. I have the impression it happens more often when the load is high (or maybe when swap is used), but I don't have any proof for that. Sometimes every buildd-[uploader|watcher] fails a few times in a row, and then again everything runs smoothly for days.
