 we don't use the packages on buildd.d.o.  That's why.

And we have subsequently removed it.  I would recommend using the
wanna-build used by buildd.debian.org

  git://git.debian.org/mirror/wanna-build.git

Note that it's a pain to configure, and you'll probably need to
get some of the scripts from buildd.debian.org to make it usable.

Roger

Yeah well, I'll stick to my 2006 version from neuro, at least it works.
Why ship broken packages? It's detrimental to the users...

In the wannabuild case, having zero users resulted in bitrot.  Not at
all good, and that was why it was removed.  The actual bugs in it are
most likely fairly simple to fix--it just needs someone with the time
to do it.  Most are as a result of changes in other parts of the
codebase.

Note that the new wanna-build above uses PostgreSQL rather than
MLDBM, so has a number of advantages over the old neuro version.

Roger

Not zero, 1 ;)
Problem is, I've delayed for a very longtime the upgrade because every
new version had a tendency to break backward compat with config files
and such. I was running sbuild/buildd 0.58-something from db.d.o until
I decided to move. The upgrade wasn't painless, but at least it
worked. What prompts me for the wanna-build move is the lack of
--built support from the old version, but that's not a really big deal
either. Also I hoped that moving to what's in squeeze would mean
moving to something slightly more supported. Seems it's not really
the case...

 codebase.

Well, I'd be glad to help, but I have no idea how to do that...

Given the limited number of packages being handled (about 80), it's
not worth the hassle. I planned to keep using the MLDBM backend. Is it
broken?

Thanks
