+<PRE>&gt;<i> Ok so there is a bug to fix in e17, what do you do ?
+</I>
+I report it to upstream team (on irc or on the ML)
+
+&gt;<i> Or a security issue like the one I found ( and that should be fixed I
+</I>&gt;<i> hope soon, after reporting it 3 times upstream ).
+</I>
+Same way, report it upstream.
+If upstream don't fix a bug (or security issue), this bug isn't fixed.
+unless packager become a dev and fix the bug himself.
+
+&gt;<i> if the answer is &quot;we ship a newer snapshot who requires to rebuild
+</I>&gt;<i> everything regarding e17 because there is no guarantee of binary
+</I>&gt;<i> stability ( ie, ABI wise ) and that will introduce unwanted changes&quot;,
+</I>&gt;<i> then the problem is here.&#160;
+</I>
+I was thinking about something like this.
+
+&gt;<i> Unless the snapshot are bugfixes only ( and they are not ), that's a
+</I>&gt;<i> problem. That's already annoying to have to do it for chrome, firefox
+</I>&gt;<i> and thunderbird to not happily increase our burden with a whole desktop
+</I>&gt;<i> environnement.
+</I>
+Without stable release, and upstream team doing fix release. I don't know
+how to do manage package.
+
+&gt;<i> So far, I have asked the question 3 times. No one answered at all.
+</I>
+
+I hope it's done this time.
+
+&gt;<i> Also, please do not top post.&#160;
+</I>
+Sorry, will try ...
+
+
+So, yes, there isn't any way to manage bug/security issue in a very easy way
+when upstream team don't provide stable tarball. So, what is the mageia&#160;
+policy in this case ? no packaging at all ? &quot;private&quot; packaging ?
+
+
