AB build [1] is failing with following error:

Clearly suggesting that host machine is running out of memory and gpg is unable to sign the package.

Note also the WARNING, indicating another problem related to ownership.

Just realized that this is ross/mut so it may be invalid. Leaving as it is, so decision on its status is done at triage
