My two cents This is not the issue i think, the problem started when the release-team decided to do not release the tarballs bcause a big breakage in many parts of the release, until the whole set got fixed. Some packagers started complaining about "you cannot stop the release because we have packages already online and this will break our stuff" )not exactly the same words, but basically the same thing) As result, kde gets some bug reports about those broken tarballs, which probably nobody is able to determine if the bugs are related to a problem in the code or rather a problem with the broken release I think it is easy, KDE gives the packagers the tarballs soon so we can compile them and catch those issues - and we can wait a bit before actually releasing the tarballs publicly to avoid issues like this one, is not that hard and will ensure a better final product for everybody. I did released many times a kde sc in testing before the actual release date, but from now on, will wait a bit before pushing the tarballs to the server, is not that hard.
