Sure, you can use whatever runner you want. > 2) How can I increase or how can we manage to build packages that needs a > lot of time to be built? There is a runner timeout that is used whenever it's smaller than the project/job timeout. 3h is probbaly the default runner timeout. https://docs.gitlab.com/ci/runners/configure_runners/#set-the-maximum-job-timeout There is an existing support request to raise this timeout, and we'll get to it at some point. If you are in a hurry and can't wait, you can probably just use your own private runner. https://salsa.debian.org/salsa/support/-/work_items/587
