I think one source of opposition for autobuilding packages before they
go into NEW is that the DFSG team won't yet has asserted/confirmed that
the license permits autobuilding. But, well, we already have Salsa CI,
so I think that is not worth blocking on.
Indeed.
I don't know much about how the autobuilding system works but I would
love it if someone who did understand that would figure out how to
make this work.
I think I'd strongly prefer not to autobuild code on the existing
systems that has not been vetted yet. So then we'd need a separate
infrastructure for that.
I wouldn't mind if there is the moral equivalent of sending the upload
to Salsa CI and use the outputs for review. But it's not clear to me if
the existing autobuilding system would need to accommodate that.
Kind regards
