--- Comment #6 from Ian Lepore <ian@FreeBSD.org> ---
(In reply to Alex Kozlov from comment #5)

"Should be fixed" is easy to say, but it's meaningless.  Provide details,
what's your proposal?  It doesn't matter if the lock can be held for a shor=
ter
duration, the locking conflicts will still occur, it will just be less like=
ly.
But failing to handle a less-likely error is still a failure.

How specifically do you propose to handle the case where nightly periodic j=
obs
are running at the same time as package building and/or installation and th=
ere
is lock contention?  Will there be retries?  A limit to how many times or h=
ow
long to keep retrying?  A way to configure those limits?
