That's just your perception and I don't see any consensus on that. The bug is fixed and fixed only in the development branch and this is a fairly common thing to do for upstream projects as well as distributions. because the fix is too small or too intrusive. As long as the user is informed about the reason, the status is just fine. Rahul -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
