Check on the order of hourly. It is actually started much quicker than that. The bigger issue is koji. Because they are done as scratch builds, they get a low priority and can take *much* longer to build than a regular kernel. For instance, this mornings kernel build was started within minutes of the git commit. Possibly even before the actual rawhide build was started. At this point, the rawhide build has been done for a while, and the nodebug build is still going. Had I waited until the koji build finished to start the nodebug build, you would just be waiting an extra hour or so for your nodebug kernel. I might suggest adding an exclude kernel* to your rawhide kernel repo if you want to insure that you are getting the nodebug kernels always. Every kernel is built there, even the first rc kernels which are nodebug in rawhide anyway.
