[Python-apps-team] Bug#917422: python3-buildbot: TimeoutStartSec=5 in service file is too short

[Rhonda D'Vine]

Source: buildbot
Version: 1.6.0-1
Severity: minor

Dear Maintainer,

I have a fair amount of packages (currently 54 but increasing) for which
to create builders.  So I chose to write a short loop in the master.cfg
that does append to the builders with a few steps (git checkout, and
four shell commands).  That was enough that starting the service ran
into the timeout that is set in the service file.

 Could you potentially remove that timeout, or increase it to a
reasonable bigger size that would fit with bigger installments than just
a few builders?  That would be really nice.  Having to override it with
a custom service file is somehow working against having the service file
shipped by the package.

 Thanks,
Rhonda
