The basic rule is that FTBFS on our buildds are RC, and FTBFS that only happen in other environments are not RC. Otherwise we would be back at the point of endless discussions around claims that FTBFS that only happen on single-core machines would be RC. IMHO (not a member of the release team) reproducible rebuilds with nocheck would be a difference that might make sense both for build stability and build time at some point, but right now it's likely best to try to minimize differences. > Cheers Jochen cu Adrian
