Hi Rainer, Sorry about the disappearance; indeed I'm not at RH anymore, and although I'm trying to follow gdb-patches, I'm not subscribed to gdb@ anymore, which means I completely missed your message :-/. Anyway, I was not aware of this problem with our buildbot. I thought I'd be able to maintain it while doing my other job, but as it turns out it's just too much. So I'm hijacking this thread and turning it into a request for help with our Buildbot. I don't know how much value the Buildbot still brings to the community. I know a few people were relying heavily on it because of the try build feature, but I'm not sure if they still use it. That's something for the community to discuss, I think. Anyway, if you're a GDB contributor and are interested in helping maintaing the Buildbot infra, please get in touch with me and we will figure something out.
