</I>><i> I saw mentioning that QA is really busy. How can I make this as simple

</I>><i>
</I>><i> Should I:
</I>><i> #1 :

</I>><i> - provide each bug as update
</I>><i> then later:
</I>><i> - one massive GNOME 3.4.2 update?
</I>><i>
</I>><i> #2 :

</I>><i>
</I>><i> #3 :

</I>><i>
</I>
QA will probably have their answer, but it seems to me much easier for
QA to verify one or two packages at a time, meaning #3 as much as
possible, and then #1.
As far as how you do it for testing yourself (before presenting to QA),
you could use whatever approach seems easiest, but even there I would
think that #3 as much as possible would be easier. Anyway, that is how
I tend to approach things.
(#2 seems a potential nightmare, since you're bound to miss things.)
