And here you removed the newest version having ~ia64 keyword, breaking
revdeps:

https://qa-reports.gentoo.org/output/gentoo-ci/1061286/7.html#l885

I suggest you use eshowkw before removing packages. Please fix or
revert this.

Just choosing a random commit-reply to reply to.

Thanks for all the ci testing.  I'm sure it's not pleasant being so 
frequently the bearer of bad news, but I'm glad someone has stepped up to 
do the testing and tell people when their commits break things. =:^)

And while we're at it, thanks for the metadata-integrated git mirror, as 
well, as I use it. =:^)

done; thx for the reminder


feel free to revert such commits (at least mine) and send me an email
so that i get notified something went wrong in the future

PS: can't these checks/emails be automated ? it must be very boring to
manually track the culprit from ci output

Not one that I can think of. This usually requires looking at what changed in both packages, and sometimes profiles. I don't want to blame wrong people just because someone made an irrelevant commit in a package.

if CI runs after each commit, it should just be a matter of emailing
the author when some new breakage appears

If CI were to run after each commit, I'd need a cluster of servers to
run it ;-). On the pretty powerful server donated to the task it takes
7 minutes for a single run, with 16 parallel jobs.

Of course, someone could try to optimize it more, or write a faster
checker. I'd really appreciate if someone had the time to do that ;-).

At some point, I wanted to make it try 'git bisect'-ing when new
failure occurs. However, I don't have the time nor the resources to
work on it. In fact, I don't even have time to make it a little bit
smarter and figure out which packages are failing. Right now, it only
reports changes in number of failures -- if you fix one and break one,
it won't report that.

So, yes, there's a lot of work and nobody to do it.
