We can say that we want a recovery build the following day. Alternatively, we can say that the test failure is not significant, and that the quality of the build should not be affected. (In either case, a bug should likely be entered into the bug database.)</p> <p>A recovery build can also be requested if there is a problem affecting the usability of the build. This problem should make the build unusable for testing and development use.</p> <p>For a recovery build, the map will need to be updated to include our fixes. This can either be everything on the head in CVS, or just the particular fixes we need. The former should only be done if no risky changes have gone onto the head since the last (i.e., the failed) build submission.</p> </td> <tr> </tr> </table> </body> </html>
