Hi,
is there a reason why sbuild has a "wanna-build" dependency? As i
understand sbuild in case its been run from buildd gives back packages 
when they fail building due to problems of the build environment.

I find this overly complicated to rebuild wanna-build invocations from
multiple pieces of software etc. I found multiple problems with local
wanna-builds in sbuild and buildd and fixed at least the buildd part.

My guess would be that a return code from sbuild wouldn't work because
buildd hands out multiple packages at once to sbuild? Is this a real
performance win on any platform? Compared to build time this shouldnt
matter should it?

Flo
