I had come to the same conclusion. kdb v4.4 should be in SuSE 9.2[*],
SuSE 9.1 will stay on kdb v4.3.
[*] Assuming that we can get the ppc64 tree upgraded to kdb v4.4 at
some stage. The ppc developers do not send me kdb patches, instead
they include kdb in their own bk tree and update it there, with no
feedback to the list.
This means that ppc64 tends to trail the rest of kdb, which causes
problems for distributions that support kdb on multiple
architectures. I would really like a separate ppc64 kdb patch so
it can be tracked and updated as required.
