Yup.
Which architectures out-of-dateness is ignored is based on how their
respective buildds are going. I'm intending to use <85% as a reason to
start ignoring architecures, and >90% as a reason to make the checks
start counting again. At the moment arm, m68k and powerpc are ignored.
The current wanna-build statistics for the architectures in testing
are:
i386: 99.41% up-to-date, 99.41% if also counting uploaded pkgs
alpha: 92.98% up-to-date, 93.11% if also counting uploaded pkgs
sparc: 92.05% up-to-date, 92.11% if also counting uploaded pkgs
arm: 85.28% up-to-date, 85.37% if also counting uploaded pkgs
m68k: 77.76% up-to-date, 78.01% if also counting uploaded pkgs
ppc: (unknown)
the number of out of date warnings in update_excuses for each architecture
(which should roughly match the above stats) is:
30 i386
87 alpha
138 arm
145 sparc
228 m68k
286 powerpc
The wanna-build stats for unreleased architectures, fwiw, is:
mips: 64.83% up-to-date, 64.83% if also counting uploaded pkgs
ia64: 51.69% up-to-date, 52.33% if also counting uploaded pkgs
hppa: 21.51% up-to-date, 22.19% if also counting uploaded pkgs
mipsel: 1.91% up-to-date, 1.91% if also counting uploaded pkgs
(I don't have stats for hurd-i386, sh or s390)
Thanks go to Ryan Murray (neuro) for setting most of this up for me :)
Cheers,
