and? I think these are bugs that we should hide at least in [old]stable and on slow architectures. That's not the only place we don't fall on bugs. (E.g. the we don't uninstall packages hides bugs as well. But I'm happy with that.) An alternative suggestion: How if we grep for the specific occurence in the build logs, and file bug(s) (or even autofile once per week against buildd.d.o if there was at least one occurence)? That way we don't block builds, but we still notice. Andi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
