Hello fellow developers, It seems that the number of fails to build from source has unfortunately increased. Looking at http://qa.ubuntuwire.com/ftbfs/ it appears that there are 18 packages that FTBFS in the main component, 268 in universe and 11 in multiverse.
The Not Build from Source (NBS) list is much longer than it used to be in the previous cycles. Have a look at http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/NBS/. As Colin said in the release meeting today, every file that has size 0 is ready for removal and shouldn't need to be worried about. We've got only a few weeks left until Maverick is released and we should definitely shorten both lists. If you either have a package ready to be uploaded which fixes a FTBFS and don't have upload privileges for it or have any enquries regarding one or both lists, please don't hesitate to poke me on IRC. Ta, Iulian
