#117993.
libfwbuilder-dev built incorrectly so the other packages
using libfwbuilder-config got this,

# libfwbuilder-config --libs
-L/usr/lib -lfwbuilder -lssl -lcrypto -lsnmp -lgthread -lglib -lxslt -lxml2 -lsigc -lpthread /usr/lib/libresolv.a

I don't know what happened but that kind of thing is rare.
bruno.fmepnet.org is the only m68k buildd that would catch this
by itself as it's in the US and has no non-US URIs in the chroot.

bruno runs essential and build-essential, apt, fakeroot, sudo,
ssmtp.  Some have the common programs like debhelper, flex and so
on installed.  buildd puts a watch on these and tells you if their
access times have changed.  Having these pre-installed saves a
non-trivial amount of time on m68k but puts more of a load on
the guy handling the logs because you have to check the logs
more closely.  And there are a lot of bogus hits; from configure
looking for something then not using it for instance.

You won't generally find things like libssl-dev in the chroot
unless there was a crash or a quick abort that didn't give buildd
time enough to clean up and the admin hasn't gotten around to
having a look.  

Several developer machines run buildds if you want to check things
out.  gluck and voltaire for example.
