Original report (archived issue) by Steve Peters (Bitbucket: Steven Peters).

One of the gazebo nightly builds failed recently because it was running concurrently with the uploader for the nightly sdformat deb:

and triggered the

repository uploader job and
gazebo nightly build, which failed because the uploader job changed the apt repository (yesterday's sdformat nightly build was deleted) between the time the gazebo deb builder did apt-get update and apt-get install

A related issue is making sure nightlies are run in topological order for Ignition libraries. Imagine the following scenario:

ign-msgs breaks ABI on main
ign-transport's nightly is run against the old ign-msgs nightly
ign-msgs nightly is run with new code
ign-gazebo's nightly is run with a mix of the new ign-msgs and the new ign-transport, which is linked against the old ign-msgs
ign-gazebo has runtime problems because of the mixed ABI
