Thanks Damjan for the (as usual) great progress.
Buildbots
should immediately fail the build if ./bootstrap fails
Yes, there is no sense in continuing if bootstrap fails
Yes, sure.
5 hours is pure waste. Alternatively we should find a more reliable
ooo-extras hosting solution than SourceForge. We could also cache
dependencies offline between builds, but I am guessing that has licensing
issues?
No, dependencies we temporarily download on a build machine are not
affected by licensing issues.
Maybe an extra parameter --cache-dir=$DIR to bootstrap would work? This
way we could setup a dedicated cache directory on the buildbots (even if
we are doing a "clean build", there is really no point in re-downloading
a file if the checksum matches).
showed 4 nmake processes, 2 from March 30, 2 from April 4, part of
orphaned trees also containing perl, sh, and dmake.
At least we could have the VM restarted to make sure we don't carry
stale processes around for months. Infra can for sure do it with minimal
effort. And access to the dedicated IRC channel for giving instructions
to buildbots might be useful too (I guess you know what I am talking
about; if not, just ask and I can look it up).

Andrea.
