Description Pascal Rapicault CLA 2006-12-11 08:31:13 EST 
I was checking the download page to see if a new build was available. When I clicked on the build link for I20061211-0600, I have been presented with a "build failed" message and a bunch of logs.
It would have been more useful if it could have given the real cause: "Build canceled, maps files unchanged" and in this case point me at the build to use.

It will also send a text message to the releng phone, bit of a false alarm : (

I have a feeling this was basically fixed a long time ago? 

But, I saw this in my query looking to restore the "no change" logic in building on build.eclipse.org, and saw this one. 

Via bug 377666 the message to mailing list will say "build canceled" and 
there will be no "build to click on" in HTML page.
