FTBFS bug was filed against mame [1]. Unfortunately, the corresponding

perspective as it effectively is a bug with no info provided whatsoever.
Not to mention being quite wasteful from the resources perspective as
mame builds take quite a while.
While not much can be done now, can we make sure that the mass rebuild
builds do not get garbage collected, or at least the build logs are
saved somewhere? Thanks.
This is a constantly recurring problem. I have run into this very
frequently. The retention period for failed build logs is way too short. It
needs to be at least 13 months (the approximate time we get to fix an FTBFS
bug before the package is retired).
I have to agree here. There is nothing more frustrating as a contributor
than going to investigate a FTBFS for a package and finding the logs are
gone.
At the very least, the 'latest' failure logs should be retained for much
longer.
