Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

This one in particular seems very bad:
Exception in /builds/buildbot/talos-r3/twistd.log.3:

It seems to indicate that some builders are failing to instantiate one or more of their steps. Based on this appearing on test and production masters I'd guess it's somewhere in UnittestPackagedBuildFactory.

Based on the recency, and the fact that it touched MozillaPackagedXPCShellTests, I'd guess that this is related to bug 574091, which I landed earlier today. I'll have a look.

This ended up requiring yet another bustage fix:
http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbotcustom/rev/aaecd78c0108

It's all fixed now, though.
