Yeah, the "finished" state is some rescue state in case something went
terribly wrong. Usually this happens when something inside redports fails
or some backend behaves very weird or if the port creates some very strange
situation like a recursive dependency (which fills up a temporary partition=
 and
then fails).

If only one of many jobs fails then chances are good that it is some redpor=
ts
weirdness. If many jobs fail (like in this case) and it is reproducible the=
n the
chances are good that your port is doing something very very bad.
