Imho there would be less confusion, when you use the date when you started the
rebuild in the subject instead of the date when it finished.
I can think about doing this.
Or maybe rebuild
all packages, that failed to build, when they have a more recent version
available. Maybe this can reduce the gap between the starting and finishing
the rebuild good enough.
I did a fresh complete rebuild from last Monday's rawhide to be sure
everything got rebuilt with the new buildid code path. However, even
on 7 fast builders, it takes several days to build 4660 packages * 2
architectures. I believe all the toolchain changes are now complete,
such that I can just do rebuilds of failed builds for the rest of the
Fedora 8 cycle. That takes less than a day, it's only a little over
600 packages at this point.
I would like to see Fedora implement a hard deadline, such as Test 1,
for all toolchain changes to be complete, so that all builds that
happen post-Test1 will be built with the new toolchain. I know that's
been the goal of releng, but I'd like to see that formalized as well.
Thanks,
Matt
