Uh, except for arm, m68k and hurd-i386; all the ports have sustained over 98% up-to-dateness for almost the entirety of the past month -- that was the major issue that made the Vancouver Nybbles document limit release architectures to i386, ppc and ia64. Steve's recent binNMUs of KDE for library transitions has pushed that down to 97% for a couple of architectures, and 96% for hppa, but if you go back just a few months, ia64, sparc, alpha, and s390 were all having problems staying above 95%, which has been the cut-off for consideration in testing for years now, with hppa even dropping below 90%. If you want the nightmare to end, I'd suggest you try opening your eyes. > Perhaps it is time for a replacement buildd network, and a new > delegation from the DPL for keyring maintenence? Whatever for, exactly? The buildd network's working better today than it has since woody released, IMO. I also see the keyring's been updated earlier this week, including both a replacement key for Horms from late last month, and Chip's requested updates. Cheers, aj
