The others, when around, are a bonus.
I wonder if there isn't a way to build arch all packages on the amd64 buildds. That might help a bit with the long queue on i386. For instance, the amd64 queue is currently empty while i386 is estimated at 36 hours right now. I'm almost certain that if I were to upload an arch all package (i.e. a python only app) right now it would go into the i386 queue. > However, when we start implementing Build From Branch [1] we'll need a lot > more horsepower so I'll be asking for a lot more builders to cope with the > load. > > J > - Andrew _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
