A handy illustration of why we do that popped up today:

Upload with this patch applied on its way.

Thank you Olly for that insights.
In this case applying the patch would be good because currently the package 
therion is broken if one uses the „cs“ command.

We usually update to the latest upstream sources only when upstream make
a release (since that's a strong signal that it's "ready").  If we start
pulling arbitrary snapshots from upstream git where we have to worry
about there being changes which might not yet be ready, so in between
we would usually apply a targetted fix for a problem.

So we can probably apply the tiny patch from
https://github.com/therion/therion/pull/151 but it would really make
sense for upstream to make an actual release.

Package: therion
Version: 5.4.4ds1-4

Hello, i just wanted to inform you that therion still fails with the proj 
issue[1] on my system when installing from the new package 5.4.4ds1-4.

Also the loch glx issue[2] was fixed recently in upstream (Olly did a patch on 
this in the last deb package which is obsoleted by Stachos upstream fix.

It would be nice to recompile the package including the latest upstream 
sources, thank you!
