Subject: KMail and Debian packages Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2001 18:04:19 +0100 From: Michael Häckel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Ivan E. Moore II" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Ivan, We (the KMail team) receive here daily about two bug reports from people that use KMail 1.2 which came with KDE 2.1 on KDE 2.2 and that doesn't work properly. Of course in theory that should work, but in reality there are some problems. I have heard, that there exists a policy, that packages have to remain 10 days in unstable, until they can go to testing. Therefore this results in people using KMail 1.2 on KDE 2.2. If it is really not possible to change that, wouldn't it then be better to leave the whole KDE release in unstable until all packages are ready for testing? At least the current policy spreads bad light on the KMail developers although it is not KMail that is broken, but this policy.
