Feature added by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Feature #324891, revision 1 Title: fix excessive rebuilding in transitive mode Buildservice: New Priority Requester: Mandatory Requested by: Ludwig Nussel (lnussel) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Following up on https://github.com/openSUSE/open-build-service/issues/3749 For packages in a build cycle obs normally stops the rebuilding at some point when all packages have been built with all others. From observations when building distributions that however doesn't work if build-compare is enabled. When starting Leap 42.3 in December 2016 I from scratch I could show that gcc was built 101 times. So as workaround we always have to be careful to either switch rebuild mode to direct or disable build compare when checking in base packages. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/324891
