Sorry you are not getting any response there. You need to understand that the people who get [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail (elmo and perhaps other DSA people) are not the same people as the ones who are the listed arm-porters. Only buildd people can control the buildds and ask for reschedules (I can't do that, so far as I know), but I can add build-deps to leisner. I've just added the missing build-deps for python-qt3: python-all-dev qt3-apps-dev sip4 python-sip4-dev libqscintilla-dev in the unstable chroot on leisner. Hopefully that mean you can work out what the problem is. The buildd people do usually reschedule things when asked, I believe, but there is (almost) never any direct feedback so it's hard to know if people who ask questions here are getting the help they need. On the one hand I've been told that messages to debian-admin should not be copied to this list as then they tend to get missed in the DSA pile. But on the other hand, we on this list don't see mails to debian-admin, and can't help unless whtever you want is copied to this list. This is all rather unsatisfactory and inefficient, but I really don't know how to fix it. Better info for developers who need help with their packages would be good, I suppose. But where best to put it? On the arm port pages? A monthly posting to this list?
