So I have hit that retention period yesterday by chance?  Do you know
a better way to re-trigger the creation of the logs than uploading a
new package?

No matter how long that period might be, IMHO the link in tracker
should not point to something saying

   Not Found: /data/autopkgtest/testing/s390x/r/r-bioc-megadepth/36684073/log.gz

I'd recommend to rather replace it by

   Sorry, to limit the space consumtion on our servers the log for
   $PACKAGE $VERSION was deleted on $DATE.
   
Extra points if you could add a method how to recreate this log.

Its probably a common thing to point to those logs in Github issues and
its not helpful if the page just looks like an error message.

Thanks a lot for all your work on Debian CI

     Andreas.
