If a QA environment differs significantly from the buildds where the package is usually built, then this might be considered a bug in the QA environment - you are not testing whether the package would still build on the buildds. If the problem is just a single package in your setup, the easiest solution is to blacklist that package in your setup. The reproducible CI that continuously rebuilds the whole archive also has some packages blacklisted that are problematic in their environment, that's better than having a negative impact on the build time on the buildds or even the contents of the package. > Thanks. cu Adrian
