Subject: [Bioc-devel] RSS package feeds not updated

Hi,

some/many of the package build RSS feeds [1] don't receive updates.
 For
example,

  http://bioconductor.org/rss/build/packages/DESeq2.rss (from
  2014-11-04)

  http://bioconductor.org/rss/build/packages/BiocInstaller.rss (from
  2014-10-15)

report package builds as broken, although the current builds are
fine.

In contrast,

  http://bioconductor.org/rss/build/packages/GenomicRanges.rss

was recently updated (2014-12-01) and also contains the build report
of
both the devel and release branch (the broken ones listed above
don't).

Most of the packages that I checked manually seem to be
outdated/broken
- I guess there is a issue with the underlying feed system.

Thanks for the report. I've had a look. I've changed the system so it doesn't try to be smart about not updating feeds for packages that do not have issues. 
This means all package feeds will be updated daily, whether there is an issue or not. Not sure if this will be annoying to feed users; we can revisit it if it's an issue. 

Thanks,
Dan
