Let me repeat what I have already written. Does portage print the exact error when dying? No, so we have a package manager that ends without saying why and while everyone is refusing to talk about that and understand this, in my opinion this issue denies everyone to make an automated full/complete report. Toralf did and is doing a great job, but you are confusing CI with a man that reviews and files bug half-manually. > That said, I don't have these problems with toralf's reports.

The rule in case of bug report is to attach the build log and provide emerge --info. If you think that those info are not enough that's fine, but please document that. > I do not agree with this conclusion.

If find the exact error in a build log requires too much time and you do not want to spend time, instead of be forced to not ignore me you can request to be excluded from the reports. In general the CI reports are there to help. People that does not see those reports as help can request to not receive reports anymore. Agostino
