Because if we don't test the updated package we don't know: a) does it actually fix the bug? b) does it break anything else? Just because an update 'contains an important fix' doesn't mean it's fine to release it without testing. However, I certainly agree this should be fixed ASAP, and saying 'well it doesn't crash for EVERYONE' and 'upstream should fix it instead' are pretty weak excuses. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
