I've pushed a temporary fix to the dist-specs, and meta/check-dists now runs without errors. Hopefully the nightly builds will be back tomorrow. The underlying problem remains, though.

Please bring back the nightly build.

The icons collection has some issues that need to be resolved:

* It breaks the dependencies.  The error is:

     unsatisfied dependency for "dr-bin":
     "racket/collects/icons/main.rkt" (in:
     "racket/collects/drracket/compiled/syncheck-drracket-button_rkt.dep"
     ...)

   This means that the DrRacket distribution requires "icons/main.rkt",
   and that's missing from the distribution.

   The reason it's missing is that Matthew tried to fix the more
   serious problem that was there before: the new icons requires
   `slideshow' and `texpict' (via `unstable/gui/pict'), and since
   DrRacket uses it, it now depends on these too.

   Potential ways to resolve it:

   1. Decide that it's fine to make slideshow and texpict required for
      drracket.

   2. Dump the idea of making sense and stop making these tests.

   3. Avoid the new dependency, and make the code not require that.
      Potentially do that by splitting the code into a part that
      drracket can use, and a part that is not needed.


The nightly builds have now been failing for seven days. I assume it's
because of this dist-spec issue.

I vote we do #1 to get the nightly builds working again immediately. When
the parties involved figure out a long-term solution, we can undo the
dist-spec change.

It would also be nice if the particular distributions that did succeed in
the nightly builds were made available. I assume that the "plt-everything"
distribution (or whatever it's called) has been succeeding, and that only a
lesser-used distribution is preventing any updates.
