Hi, as a QA effort the whole archive was rebuilt over the weekend to catch build-failures, whether a package can be build three tmes in a row (unpack, build, clean, build,clean, build). This is the second effort to get rid of those issues. The first effort was announced by Martin-Zobel Helas on 16 May 2007 [0].
We found again about 400 packages not having a sane clean target. To cite http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-source.html#s-debianrules clean This must undo any effects that the build and binary targets may have had, except that it should leave alone any output files created in the parent directory by a run of a binary target. We'll fill bug reports against every package that FTBFS in this way with Severity: Important. Furthermore we detect some issues with different package content (compared to the first build) after the second and third build. This bugs will have Severity: Serious. You'll find after we at the end all filled bugs either here [1] or here [2]. Please note that building a package twice in a row is a release goal for lenny.
