I am very disoriented by your disagreement as I have the impression that nobody proposed that failures to build on non-minimal environments should be taken less seriously as they are now. More and more developers use a chroot for the package they upload. This does not mean that they do not try to build it on non-artificial environments before that final step. What we probably miss is the local build logs from the package preparation. More and more packages are stored in a VCS. Recently, I have started to store build logs in a branch of the packages I maintain with Git. Is there an interest for standarisation ? In the context of this discussion, the advantage of having the local build logs stored somewhere is that we would be able to know how many developers upload packages built in a chroot.
