That's missing, not misconfigured. But I'll fix that. > > Huh? I don't think you mean melanie, she doesn't delete files. > > Yes, I was confused.

Yes, again, this is because you chose to edit katie.conf rather than start from scratch or a less specialised conf file (like security) and you left Accepted Autobuilding. Like the other things it defaults to off unless explicity configured in the config file. > > I know that's non-intuitive but that's just how it is always been > > hysterically. > > And that is documented where??? s/but/and undocumented but/. happy? > > > - cron.buildd is for buildd, I don't know where to get wanna-build from > > > so I don't use it.

Because damn it, it's annoying. You're insulting about katie when you clearly haven't looked at nearly enough to make an informed judgement of it. You whine about lack of documentation when you clearly haven't looked at what there is. You don't bother to check anything or try to figure anything out for yourself even when you easily could. And then you post as if you know what you're talking about - or at least have tried the best you could to know what you talking about - which lends undeserved credence to your bogus statements about katie. > I seem to be getting a clear signal back that you are not interested > with the feedback I am giving, and that you would rather I didn't > try.
