Where did you get the information about the position in the queue from?

I could do a build on a alpha machine, but I only have access to the
buildd machine (escher) where it is deprecated to build packages:

I would recommend the later version, because -5 is the better
version(?). Because there are a lot of other packages still to be build,
I think the problem with the alpha queue will be resolved anyway.
