Thanks for the report, but I doubt that this will be implemented in tracker.debian.org anytime soon. I would suggest that the buildd should add headers so that people with very specific requirements can filter out some mails with procmail or similar. I'm putting debian-wb-t...@lists.debian.org in copy to hear their thoughts about this. Do you think it's possible to add headers like: X-Debian: buildd.debian.org X-Debian-Architecture: powerpc X-Debian-Suite: sid X-Debian-State: failed > PS: In case you're interested: see all the Maybe-Failed on this page: > https://buildd.debian.org/status/logs.php?pkg=firefox&arch=powerpc > I received a mail for every single one of them.
