That's why I run it in parallel, takes about 45 minutes wall time like that

http://packages.gentooexperimental.org/repoman-checks/

updated per cron job, split by category. Much easier to handle :)

Feel free to work on fixing things - there's enough issues that you
won't run out of work this decade. Some are easy cosmetic fixes, others
will require rewriting the build system from scratch ("upstream parallel
compilation bug" ? postgresql upstream for example doesn't see it as a
bug, but patches welcome)

http://packages.gentooexperimental.org/repoman-current-issues.txt is a
collection of more interesting issues, all of these are also announced
to IRC by my messy hack of a shell script by the name of AutoRepoman.
#gentoo-bugs, #gentoo-qa on irc.freenode.net

Have fun,

Patrick
