Even this cleanup should be done be the buildd admins itself IMHO. I usually do that together with a chroot-cleanup on the buildd, and thus do not like to have it done by others. I know that i sometimes lag behind a bit (a day or two). Nag me over IRC in that case. Greetings Martin PS: Philip Kern has access to all my buildds as well, so if something needs urgent response, feel free to nag him as well. -- Martin Zobel-Helas <zo...@debian.org> | Debian System Administrator Debian & GNU/Linux Developer | Debian Listmaster Public key http://zobel.ftbfs.de/5d64f870.asc - KeyID: 5D64 F870 GPG Fingerprint: 5DB3 1301 375A A50F 07E7 302F 493E FB8E 5D64 F870 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-release-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
