Including the actual error message you saw would potentially save
a bunch of work, this type of problem is highly dependant on the order
packages were built in. Even if you're in a real hurry would it really
take more than a few seconds to paste the message into a mail to
yourself to look at later?

waiting for an ok as it's obviously correct.
