While this is useful info, the real issue is: why this should even happen...?
Is someone taking shortcuts, or are the test procedures in need of fixing...?
I'm not concerned for myself; but the MU facility used to work pretty well.
Now, there are multiple problems appearing. I'm not surprised if this stuff
happens on cooker; but we're talking updates to the *official LM7.2*... What
are the newbies and those trying to make the switch from the other OS to
think...?
Just trying to help...
