[Gnu-arch-users] Cacherevs ignored by tla library-add -s

[Martin Langhoff]

I have a mirror with several cacherevs. All clients see the cacherevs
when I run `tla cachedrevs`.

Some clients (Debian-x86 unstable tla-1.2-4) use the cacherevs as
expected when `tla library-add -s ` is invoked. Other clients
(Debian-amd64 unstable 1.2-4 and 1.3-1) ignore cacherevs and build
everything from "base-0" upwards. This takes a few hours and 10GB, so
I'd rather avoid it.

At this stage, I am not sure if it's operator error or a bug in 1.3,
so I'm looking for help isolating the problem.

>From my console on the AMD64:
