I would have expected an email mentioning the project name once, then for each package name, the tabular output of 'osc results' The subject of the e-mail should indicate that there are multiple packages that failed, and multiple platforms, if so. What I actually got, was an email with the subject 'Build failure of CrossToolchain:avr/avr-example for openSUSE_11.0/x86_64' -- this is misleading, as it leaves the impression, that all was well for e.g. 11.2 or Factory. (I don't care much about 11.0); only the body of the mail shows that these platforms also fail. -- this is misleading, as it only mentiones one minor package, leaving the impression that all other packages succeed. In fact the body of the mail shows that also 'simulavr' -- a much more important package -- failed too. The body of the mail repeats instructions how to review a build log, and how to check out a package 76 times in total. Once would have been sufficient. This bloats the email to over 1000 lines. As added redundancy multiple versions of avr-example (1.0-4.1) (1.1-1.1) are reported. I'd be only interested in the latest version. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
