The first test rebuild of saucy salamander was started yesterday for the amd64, i386 and armhf architectures. Currently running, finished for main, universe will finish within the next ten days (armhf a bit earlier).

Results can be seen at http://people.ubuntuwire.org/~wgrant/rebuild-ftbfs-test/test-rebuild-2013061...

The archive for the test rebuild is https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+archive/test-rebuild-20130614/

Some common build failures are:

- underlinking: symbols used in linked object files, which formerly were resolved by linked libraries. The fix almost always is to add the library (mentioned in the error message) to the link command.

- build failures exposed by GCC-4.8. See http://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-4.8/porting_to.html for some guidance.

Please help fixing the build failures for the final release.
