    initial v2  
    1 In [b910627a24dd483d5154676d41069654e70a8df0/macports-ports] a typo was corrected in a comment in the ports phantomjs-qt, qt5, qt55, qt56, qt57, qt58, qt59. I would not have expected this to trigger any builds, but [https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-12_arm64-watcher/builds/1950 it did trigger] 165 builds on the macOS 12 arm64 builder, all of which failed, taking 3 hours 43 minutes to do so. And our Apple Silicon build machine is very fast compared to our Intel build machines, so if the same failure affects Intel builds it would waste an even greater amount of build time.

I would not have expected this to trigger any builds, but [https://build.macports.org/builders/ports-12_arm64-watcher/builds/1950 it did trigger] 165 builds for subports of phantomjs-qt, qt5, qt55, qt56, qt57, qt58, qt59 on the macOS 12 arm64 builder, which all failed, taking 3 hours 43 minutes to do so.

    33If you can fix the build failures (and there are other tickets about those) that's great, but until then ''please'' use `known_fail yes` within a portindex-sanctioned conditional (e.g. based on `os.platform`, `os.major`, and/or `os.arch`) so that the build system can spend its limited time on more fruitful endeavors.
