Hm, recently some extra packages were installed on some buildslaves in order to test more things; one of those packages was gcc-gnat for Ada. I think that may indeed be the cause. Sorry if that was a false alarm. > Also, I don't have all those failures when I run the testsuite on my machine, > so I don't really know what causes them. These tests don't seem to be racy, so if you can't reproduce the failures, I'd say you did not introduce them. -- Sergio GPG key ID: 237A 54B1 0287 28BF 00EF 31F4 D0EB 7628 65FC 5E36 Please send encrypted e-mail if possible http://sergiodj.net/
