 Given these packages: C depends on B, B depends on A.
 A failed to build, B and C were uploaded later and failed also.
 Later, A was fixed, bumped version, re-uploaded. B did not need fixing, so
 remained untouched. C was also fixed, bumped version, re-uploaded.

 Finally, A rebuilt OK, B was not scheduled for rebuilding, C failed
 because B was still failed.

 It is requested that once a package that failed to build is updated and
 builds, all packages immediately dependent upon it are scheduled for
 rebuild. Then the same logic applies to those that rebuilt OK (their
 dependencies are scheduled for rebuild).

 Thanks.
