difficult to do anything now, there are a bunch of commits that would need
to be reverted.
Normally the world rebuild has been done on bayfront for the fonts split
branch. I have just rebased it on master. So indeed what is new on master
since October 7 may need rebuilding. But I tried with my home profile, and
all of the packages were available.
Also, QA says that there is above 90% availability on ci and bordeaux for
the master branch on x86_64, and about 90% on i686. Close to 100% on aarch64
on bordeaux as well. (Hm, this seems to be for the revision before the
merge. So I do not know; the numbers for the fonts split branch were similar,
however.)
So the only situation where I would see a lot of rebuilding is aarch64 for
persons who have disabled substitutes from bordeaux.
Or does this "my channel" refer to a private channel? Then indeed, the merge
was a world rebuild change; so external channels will only now start to
be built.
