Version: 0.60.0-1+buildd20100405.1
Severity: important

buildd should check if date(.upload) < date(.changes) && signed(.changes)
and delete the .upload file if this is the case.  Otherwise uploads of
given-back packages will not happen if a stale .upload file still lays
around in the upload queue, despite it being signed properly.

Kind regards,

Hi,

why this high severity? This rather sounds like a feature request so should be
severity wishlist, no?

Since this bug has been unfixed for more than five years I guess the problem
has been dealt with in a different way now?

Can this bug thus be closed?

Should it be marked wishlist?

Thanks!

cheers, josch

We still need to login manually into buildds whenever this happens and
nuke away the .upload file.

(Luckily it does not happen too often that builds are rejected or
reuploaded. And the security team for instance knows that they have to
contact us for exactly this manual action whenever this happens.)

Kind regards
Philipp Kern
