Hehe I've set up the next build farm already (no auto push yet):
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/home:rudi_m:ul-all/ul-plain

These are very different (sometimes strange) hosts. Xen, kvm, real
machines ... with or without sudo, module support, etc. The build
hosts may even change between rebuilds. Sometimes they are under heavy
load. Most issues are fixed now so I guess 2.26.2 will be a good one :)

There are still some random failures sometimes like this:

             : resize                      ... FAILED (sfdisk/gpt-resize)
....
