There are 2699 packages on axp0 waiting to be picked up since friday. I have emailed at least twice about this. I've run a second pass but only got one extra package on the second pass. I had assumed that something critical had failed, but it doesn't look like it. It seems that some important package is listed as 'broken' on the alpha and is blocking out over half the tree via dependencies. Is there a way to tell the package build to not delete the package if the plist stuff is out of sync? This seems to be the cause of lots of missing packages on alpha for fairly minor things (forgetting to rmdir an alpha specific directory, for example) Cheers, -Peter -- Peter Wemm - peter@FreeBSD.org; peter@yahoo-inc.com; peter@netplex.com.au "All of this is for nothing if we don't go to the stars" - JMS/B5 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hubs" in the body of the message
