Branch scanning sometimes times out and leaves branches in this state. That seems to be what happened to the first one; I'm not totally sure that that's what happened to the second, but in any case it would do no harm to try rescanning. I don't have permission to do this to your branch directly, but could you try saving http://paste.ubuntu.com/7532414/ as "lp-rescan-branch", and then running:

  ./lp-rescan-branch lp:~maria-captains/maria/maria-10.0-galera
  ./lp-rescan-branch lp:~maria-captains/maria/10.0-serg

? If this works then you should see the results in less than ten minutes. If it doesn't work then it may be worth trying once more immediately while it's all in hot cache, but if that still fails then I expect this is a harder problem that needs further investigation.

This script does work, but on a couple branches I had to run the script and then run it again 10 minutes later, like you said.

Thanks!
