Hi All,

If you use the Gerrit retrigger functionality, you can mitigate this by
running jjb over your specs or by opening the job config in the web
interface and hitting save. This is needed to pick up some new fields in
the job config that were added by plugin updates.

If you have any questions please let us know.

Cheers!
