Hi there, If you remember, we agreed not to upgrade Xorg components very often some time ago.
You can notice, however, that I sometimes bump a library, driver, server and such for a newer version. The reason behind that is mainly that even upstream developers "agree" that katamari releases are waste of time. So my thoughts are we shouldn't wait for any major stuff to happen (like we did wait for Xorg Server 1.13.0 because we didn't want to upgrade libraries and protocol headers just because we agreed on that) and just upgrade things as they get released - as other rolling release distros do. If you are interested, here is the link to upstream post http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2013-February/055493.html Probably the most important part is: In keeping with the X.Org goal of about one release per year, Release 7.7 of the X Window System occurred 6 June 2012. Release 7.6 was about 1.5 years earlier, in December 2010. However, there is some feeling among the developer community that the "katamari" point releases of all of X are no longer terribly useful, yet are a big consumer of developer resources. Thus, it is likely that these releases will be farther apart in the future, or will cease altogether--not because development pace is decreasing, but because point releases of individual components are a better mechanism in the "new" world of modularized X development.
