The emails from the autobuilder are pretty shocking for usability. a) Trying to figure out that: """ Build Properties: Properties(**{u'bb_trigger_meta-fsl-arm_poky-tiny': None, u'branch_trigger_meta-intel_poky-tiny': None, u'branch_trigger_meta-fsl-ppc_poky-tiny': None, 'repourl_poky': u'git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky', 'got_revision': '00ab7c884b614d23a4ce6c17f07c612ecc9c7319', u'scheduler': u'trigger_poky-tiny', 'branch_meta-qt3': u'danny', u'repo_trigger_meta-fsl-arm_poky-tiny': None, u'repo_trigger_bitbake_poky-tiny': None, 'got_revision_poky': '00ab7c884b614d23a4ce6c17f07c612ecc9c7319', u'branch_trigger_meta-fsl-arm_poky-tiny': None, u'branch_trigger_eclipse-poky_poky-tiny': None, 'commit_meta-qt3': u'HEAD', u'branch_trigger_meta-qt3_poky-tiny': u'danny', u'bb_trigger_oecore_poky-tiny': None, u'branch_trigger_bitbake_poky-tiny': None, u'commit_trigger_meta-fsl-ppc_poky-tiny': None, 'revision': u'00ab7c884b614d23a4ce6c17f07c612ecc9c7319', u'bb_trigger_bitbake_poky-tiny': None, u'branch_trigger_poky_poky-tiny': u'danny', u'repo_trigger_poky_poky-tiny': u'git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky', 'commit-description': '1.3', u'bb_trigger_meta-fsl-ppc_poky-tiny': None, 'slavename': 'ab04', u'branch_trigger_oecore_poky-tiny': None, 'branch': u'', u'commit_trigger_poky_poky-tiny': u'HEAD', 'buildnumber': 129, 'distroversion': '1.3.2', u'repo_trigger_meta-intel_poky-tiny': None, u'bb_trigger_poky_poky-tiny': u'1', 'workdir': '/srv/home/pokybuild/yocto-autobuilder-new/yocto-slave/poky-tiny', u'bb_trigger_meta-qt3_poky-tiny': u'2', 'commit_poky': u'HEAD', 'repository': '', 'buildername': 'poky-tiny', u'DEST': u'/srv/www/vhosts/autobuilder.yoctoproject.org/pub/nightly/20130509-1', u'commit_trigger_meta-intel_poky-tiny': None, 'codebase': '', u'commit_trigger_meta-qt3_poky-tiny': u'HEAD', 'got_revision_meta-qt3': 'c86fb1727ae09526c442ec29fffde3f010aa70eb', u'repo_trigger_meta-qt3_poky-tiny': u'git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-qt3', u'commit_trigger_eclipse-poky_poky-tiny': None, u'repo_trigger_eclipse-poky_poky-tiny': None, u'repo_trigger_meta-fsl-ppc_poky-tiny': None, u'commit_trigger_bitbake_poky-tiny': None, u'bb_trigger_eclipse-poky_poky-tiny': None, u'commit_trigger_meta-fsl-arm_poky-tiny': None, 'project': '', u'repo_trigger_oecore_poky-tiny': None, u'commit_trigger_oecore_poky-tiny': None, u'bb_trigger_meta-intel_poky-tiny': None, 'branch_poky': u'danny', 'repourl_meta-qt3': u'git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-qt3'}) means danny is much harder than it needs to be. This needs to be formatted somehow and to place the key information at the top of the email. b) The emails don't say what failed in many cases. You have to follow the link to find out it was "Publishing Layer Tarballs" that failed for example, there is no indication in the email. We can do better than this. I'm filing a bug to ensure tit gets tracked/fixed.
