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also counting uploaded pkgs m68k: 77.76% up-to-date, 78.01% if also counting uploaded pkgs ppc: (unknown) the number of out of date warnings in update_excuses for each architecture (which should roughly match the above stats) is: 30 i386 87 alpha 138 arm 145 sparc 228 m68k 286 powerpc The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, aj -- Anthony Towns <aj@humbug.org.au> <http://azure.humbug.org.au/~aj/> I don't speak for anyone save myself.
