What to do? Well, you curse the lack of transparecy in the buildd maintainence process, and hope the problem will be fixed soon. I've not been able to find any other procedure that work better that this simple approach. I've tried to emailing Ryan Murray using the address listed at the bottom of all the buildd web pages, but do not remember if I ever got a reply. I've tried emailing the porters list, but most often this is either met with silence or I get a reply saying that the buildd admins for the given arhc are not reading the porters list. I've tried asking on IRC, and actually once got feedback from someone claiming to be the buildd maintainer of the arch in question (no way to verify this, have not found the list of maintainers), and some times one of the porters are willing to do a manual build. So, good luck, I hope your problem will be fixed soon. I'll help you with the cursing, and perhaps the problem is fixed sooner. :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
