Weirdly enough, yesterday I sculpted for 2h in a row and everything went well. After that, I opened the model I worked on and it freezed my screen again, but this time some buttons of other screens started to appear on top of the frozen window. Very weird. Anyway, this looks like it's

Before the `reconfigure` I had a 10 days old system. Now it seems to work fine. I had a hard time make it upgrade tbh, it was like stuck all the time with the same error. So it was just a network issue and it is fixed now, right? Great! Good to know, thanks!

build broken packages handling

2021-03-29 Thread Andy Tai
Two questions: 1. When submitting an updated package definition, is there an easy way to check if other packages may be broken by this update? Right now it is easy to check if a package builds with updated package definition; but it is not easy to see if committing it will break others. 2. If
