Yes, there was one such incident due to a broken sudo deployment.  We
squashed it fairly quickly, but there were some builds in the meantime.
I think we checked to make sure that those were all root:root so not too
important, but I'd have to check back through IRC logs and the like to
make sure.

Can you check for more details?  I'd like to know if any of these are
current, as if so then we still have a buildd problem which we need to
fix ASAP.  I'd also like to know if there are any files with ownership
other than root:root in this set.  If you can't get that information
easily, then the full list of affected files and packages would be a
good start.

Thanks,
