Waiting until a module build has failed to fix it sucks, imho. It's one thing to have internal mass rebuilds create FTBFS reports. It's another to have users and downstream distributions notice this and force them to create bug reports to have these fixed. It creates busy work for them and conveys low packaging quality. > Conversely, adding "everything", only meas to reflect the dependency > state which was valid at one single point in time. The same thing happens if you add a BR because of a FTBFS. There's no guarantee that it will not beome useless at some point in time.
