cool, thanks! though… ;-) [...] … I've taken this and changed the timeouts for maintenance scripts so that I could change the 1st builders timeout to 18h and the 2nd builders to 24h timeout. So I guess it's rather time to unblacklist some packages, definitly on armhf but probably even on amd64/i386? Could you maybe come up with such a list? Probably just "all which are not blacklisted on amd64"… :) > My rough process went like so: It's great to have this documented now, even if only on the list.

I'm not convinced the scheduled should be much more complicated than it already is. KISS is good. (btw, I think depwaits should be scheduled more often…) > I think Holger at one point mentioned increasing the timeouts higher > (currently 12h for 1st build, and 18h for 2nd build?), although > with all the suites tested, some builds are over 45 days old, so I'm not > sure if that would be ideal. as said, this has been implemented now. The build network can definitly catch up easily with new uploads *and* we will get more arm hw this year, so… :) -- cheers, Holger
