My experience is that the majority of the time when a package fails to build on one architecture but not others, that is actually a generic bug which could bite on all architectures -- not an arch-specific bug. It's just that some bugs aren't 100% reproduceable, and show up in some circumstances and not others. We should at least _glance_ at failures. I'm only suggesting that the packager should need to _look_ at the failure before filing the required ExcludeArch bug and pushing a 'ship it anyway' button. I'm not saying that we should force them to start the build from scratch again like we do at the moment. -- dwmw2 -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
