"If you followed the list or read the archives", you'd noticed e. g. - - Missing french documentation for kstars in 4.8.3/4.8.4 - - playground folder in the kate repo - - smokekde being broken - - a missing Soprano release (to restore SC / BC with a stub impl of tcpclient) - - build failures in one of the "final sets" of tarballs for 4.8.4 - - kdelibs and Qt version dependency funkyness And all of that was only *this* week. Almost two years ago, I wrote this on this very mailing list: http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/release-team/2010-June/003958.html The empirical data is, of course, outdated but unfortunately, most of the underlying problems are still very much the same. KDE releases *are* a mess and have been since 4.0.0 and, sorry to have to say that, I see basically nothing *systematically* being done about it. - -- Best regards, Wulf -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAk/TKSsACgkQnuVXRcSi+5rZLACfXobbWUuNbei7p+YHjsTBXGGu d24AoNtfQsBIvEuCcb3r620gpv19AunC =YCsi -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ release-team mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/release-team
