I think wanna-build lost the complete source database when the disk
was full and will (or maybe already did) hapily download all sources
from merkel again (replacing all patched sources). Is that a problem?

I stoped the source builder for now:

      Known packages:    9328 (   9328)
  Installed packages:    3740
Needs-build packages:    5585
   Dep-Wait packages:       0
     Broken packages:       0
 Not-For-Us packages:       0
   Building packages:       3
      3 build-src
  Uploading packages:       0

     Failed packages:       0
