difficult to do anything now, there are a bunch of commits that would need to be reverted. Normally the world rebuild has been done on bayfront for the fonts split branch. I have just rebased it on master. So indeed what is new on master since October 7 may need rebuilding. But I tried with my home profile, and all of the packages were available. Also, QA says that there is above 90% availability on ci and bordeaux for the master branch on x86_64, and about 90% on i686. Close to 100% on aarch64 on bordeaux as well. (Hm, this seems to be for the revision before the merge. So I do not know; the numbers for the fonts split branch were similar, however.) So the only situation where I would see a lot of rebuilding is aarch64 for persons who have disabled substitutes from bordeaux. Or does this "my channel" refer to a private channel? Then indeed, the merge was a world rebuild change; so external channels will only now start to be built. Andreas
