Yes, I do remember the 2 threads and I totally understand. On my side I know that I don't have as much time as I'd like to contribute but I at least make sure that I don't leave my animal broken because of something on my side. So I did try to check when I received the first failure notifications, also saw that there were no logs, found a few other animals with the same symptoms and concluded that it would eventually be resolved either with a fix or some instructions on the buildfarm client side or something. I did check again a few days ago when I was that nothing was pushed anymore on that branch only, saw that it was the same on other animals, got confused and gave up. > > > Yes it's me.

Ah sorry, I thought that the "rjuju" was a poor enough alias (which I more or less use everywhere) that it would be recognisable. In any case I do receive the emails so I can reply, just not from that address.
