My reading of the discussion is that there's sufficient interest for
ensuring that building-source-after-successful-binary-build works.
There is a bias asking d-devel@. You'll get people with enough time on
their hands to care about this. Nobody ever complained about not being
able to build twice in a row for years. We are asking a lot of people to
fix problems that don't really exist.
I don't have time to deal with the amount of bug reported against my own
packages (most of them with Python) and just having the social pressure
to spend time on them make me wonder if I really want to invest time at
all. If these bugs become RC, so be it.
