Currently, we terminate if there are no distributions configured. if (!...@{$self->get_conf('DISTRIBUTIONS')}) { die "distribution list is empty, aborting."; } Is this what's getting mailed?

We can add a configuration to not automatically run the watcher if not all buildd admins want it. OTOH, consistency between buildds is something IMO we should be aiming for. Regards, Roger -- .''`.
