I agree. And if we can find a reproducible case of the build dependencies not working, that should make it easier to diagnose and fix.

If we can’t fix the problem, it’s still preferable to check something in that triggers a full build rather than telling the bot to do so, since that will probably fix the problem for other people too, not just the bots.
