More specifically, buildd will start compiling a package fully
automatically; but it does not handle whatever happened to the build,
successful or otherwise, by itself -- except in a few corner-cases (when
the state on buildd.d.o is "maybe-given-back"). Both successful builds
(have to be signed) and unsuccessful builds (logs have to be interpreted,
appropriate action has to be taken based on the type of failure) need
manual intervention when they're finished.
