Hi, Some days ago I had a chat on IRC regarding the current policy of putting bugfix releases in a repository waiting to be blessed for entrance in the repositories that end-users use.
I'm unsure how it works in general, but from my point of view of KDevelop maintainer it's getting frustrating. We had an unfortunate problem that didn't hit the Kubuntu package and the fixed package hasn't entered yet (after 1 month?), even though I've been told that it's packaged somewhere, so AFAIU the problem is that it's there to be tested and there's nobody with enough authority to push that change. What I'd like to ask with this mail is what should I do to have enough authority for having the latest KDevelop patch release in the main repository. I understand that what you need is testing, so maybe I need to use a different repository (although that doesn't sound very good to me, since then I won't be sure what version are the end-users using) or maybe I need some kind of badge, but I think Kubuntu users deserve to have the bugs we spend our time fixing as soon as possible and I'd like to help for that to happen. Cheers! Aleix PS: I guess that this will be the case for the most upstream but they probably just don't know.
