Three CI builds in the last 48 hours have failed because launchpad had a lie down

[John Meinel]

CI does a build from scratch in a pristine VM. There is some discussion
about changing that in a variety of ways (in a container in a long running
VM, etc), but it doesn't have a local copy to work from so it has to pull
it from upstream each time.
