Thanks Yavor! If it ends up that you cannot do it, let me know and I can do it. But the cost of starting a rebuild and analyzing the failures is quite high in my case, so I'd rather not do it for small-scale rebuilds. I should work on improving my tooling so that such rebuilds are less time-consuming. I'll think about it. Best Lucas
