The same as any packages. What did people didn't understand about "focus on bugfixes" ? > I would understand this rejection if we would > have backports enabled. But we don't.

If by "point release", you mean "rebuild with spec change", that's much easier to revert and detect, since there is less changes to look at. And that's a part where packagers can realistially check. That's not the case for most tarballs where there is several changes for a new version. Frankly, there is a time where we should say "this is the version we choose for the release". We are not doing a rolling release. So either you agree that there is a time to say "stop" to upgrade, be it on the day of release or before, and think that the time we choosed is not the right time, and in which case, they should clearly tell. Or you want a rolling release, and again, you have to clearly say "I want to have a rolling release" and I will answer "there was some threads in the past" -- Michael Scherer -- Michael Scherer
