Just to note that the 'build-all-packages' job in Jenkins will build
everything, sorted by dependency order - in other words if program A depends
on library B which depends on library C, it'll build C, then B, then A. The
'build-all-packages_generator' calculates those dependencies from the
'depends' files in SVN, so you just need to run that to update the
relationships.

It does, however, try to build everything - last time I did this it took
about 10 hours (likely to be longer if we have more builds that make
progress). So not so great if you're trying to debug build dependencies -
probably makes sense to fix problems on your machine.

(Oh, I notice it's run out of disc again. I'll try and fix that tomorrow)
