> Unfortunately, the ticket hadn't been set to "needs review", there are
apparently only a few Sage ''developers'' dealing with OpenSuSE,
That indicates that something is wrong with the patch handling process.
It is one thing if developers do not fix a problem because they cannot
reproduce it. But the patch was available and just sat here. Further, it
is a patch for a "major" issue. Shouldn't such patches receive particular
attention from developers?

Yes, that is exactly the problem. Why did did it take this long for such
a simple patch for a major issue to receive any attention? If I hadn't
posted the comment, how long would it have taken for developers to act on
it?
