Build jobs die due to SIGKILL awfully often nowadays. When aborting jobs
poudriere needs to clean up temporary filesystems, so SIGKILL is likely
sent by out-of-memory kernel handler rather than by a human operator.

When a build fails the package is removed from the repo because it's no
longer safe to use with current dependencies (e.g., may fail to start
due to ABI mismatch, may crash often or destroy user's data). If the
package has consumers those are removed as well.

Port maintainers and regular committers don't have access to package
builders, so you need to contact portmgr@ or maybe clusteradm at .
