The build on redports had status "dud" in math/atlas which means the port has set IGNORE. I have no good way of telling which IGNORE line it is yet but it can only be one of: You have set WITH_ARCHDEF, but have not defined ARCHDEF You must select at least one of WITH_SHARED and WITH_STATIC both sound strange. > Although, it also didn't work on report when I asked for an amd64 > build. > > So it still didn't help me testing math/sage.

You did the best you could and have some logfiles that prove that. So it is also a bit my fault for not implementing to show the exact IGNORE line but I have added it to my todo and will fix that. http://redports.org/buildarchive/20120208022438-13714/ >>> Also, if everyone starts using it, isn't the backlog going to >>> become huge? >> >> I'll let the redports team worry about this :-) >> > > Fair enough. A huge backlog is usually not a problem because there are build priorities and an somewhat intelligent scheduler so you won't end up waiting a day until the first build is finished. Also right now on very busy days the backend catches up during the night so build capacity is not too underpowered right now. I'm still working on getting more machines but that takes some time. -- Bernhard Froehlich http://www.bluelife.at/
