Hi,

3) Autodetection

My approach would be to have the autobuilders use "build-arch", and ifthat fails within 60 seconds, "clean" and "build".

If "build-arch" is not implemented, it fails rather quickly, so we use"build" and make a note in the build log. Later, one can grep for that note.


If it is implemented, but fails within 60 seconds, not much is lost.

If it takes longer to fail, then it's a normal FTBFS.
