Documentation for my package `socks5` [isn't displayed](https://docs.racket-lang.org/search/index.html?q=socks5) any more. I think it's supposed to be put on the docs website by the package build server, but when I check the build logs, [it just says "Killed".](https://pkg-build.racket-lang.org/server/built/fail/socks5.txt) I tried installing `socks5` locally with a fresh Racket 8.12, and it installs fine. So there's nothing wrong with my package.

I'm guessing this is just a hiccup with the build server? Is there any way to get the build server to try again? Is there a special person to contact about issues with the build server?

IIUC your package depends on [`hyper-literate`](https://pkgs.racket-lang.org/package/hyper-literate), and it looks like that currently fails to build, with the same "Killed" message.

In other words it looks like the build is failing when trying to build the `hyper-literate/comments` module dependency -- before even attempting to build your `socks5` package per se.

As a first step maybe ping the `hyper-literate` author?

This is very likely because the hyper-literate package uses a very large amount of memory while building.

Looks like it was rebuilt now as of Racket 8.13.
