The script that runs on the autobuilder build machines is available in
the Git repository at https://git.buildroot.org/buildroot-test/, in
scripts/autobuild-run.

In order to submit your build results to autobuild.b.o, you need an
account, which I can create. But before that, you should run the script
standalone for a day or two, look at the generated build results to see
if there isn't anything obviously wrong (i.e not a real build failure,
but a build failure due to your installation).

I use the br-reproduce-build script and it works fine for me. Could you
be more specific about the issues you've encountered?

Thanks!
