Based on what I've seen in other threads, the order in which packages get built on a buildd is a function of, among perhaps other factors, its priority and section. I uploaded icu several days ago and have watched other packages (including my other uploads) sneak in front of it that shouldn't have based on these two factors. For example, nip2 (optional/graphics, no reverse dependencies) built much faster than icu (optional/libs). The only thing I can think of is that the latest icu builds two binary packages that have not previously existed because it is a library with a new soname. Does that impact it? libicu21c2 and libicu21-dev, built by the old icu, have reverse dependencies, but libicu34 and libicu34-dev don't yet. (I'm waiting to upload the packages that depend upon these until they are built on all architectures.)
Is there a place where I could have looked (other than reading the code to buildd and/or wanna-build) to find the exact method used to calculate the build order? -- Jay Berkenbilt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
