OBS: the build of some packages disturbs OBS behaviour
Background
While building some packages on OBS, unexpected and undesirable OBS behaviors may appear.
For instance, during the rebuild of v2025, we noticed:
- openjdk-17 was rebuilding in loop without succeeding.
- socat has blocked an OBS worker (xenon) for ~4 h while it takes usually < 500 sec to build the package.
While rebasing on Trixie:
- llvm-toolchain-17 was rebuilding in loop without succeeding.
Reproducibility
How often the issue is hit when repeating the steps to reproduce and changing nothing?
