</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; Hi
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; please let in xonotic-0.6.0
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;&gt; It's just a game that impacts nothing else.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; Niet.
</I>&gt;<i> &gt;
</I>&gt;<i> &gt; That's bugfix or security fixes.
</I>&gt;<i> Honestly, WTF?!
</I>&gt;<i> 
</I>&gt;<i> It's a new package. How much harm can it do? 
</I>
The same as any packages. What did people didn't understand about &quot;focus
on bugfixes&quot; ?

&gt;<i> I would understand this rejection if we would 
</I>&gt;<i> have backports enabled. But we don't. Some point release can cause more trouble than this 
</I>&gt;<i> package. 
</I>
If by &quot;point release&quot;, you mean &quot;version upgrade in a minor version&quot;,
that's also blocked.

If by &quot;point release&quot;, you mean &quot;rebuild with spec change&quot;, that's much
easier to revert and detect, since there is less changes to look at.
And that's a part where packagers can realistially check. That's not the
case for most tarballs where there is several changes for a new version.

Frankly, there is a time where we should say &quot;this is the version we
choose for the release&quot;. We are not doing a rolling release.
So either you agree that there is a time to say &quot;stop&quot; to upgrade, be it
on the day of release or before, and think that the time we choosed is
not the right time, and in which case, they should clearly tell. Or you
want a rolling release, and again, you have to clearly say &quot;I want to
have a rolling release&quot; and I will answer &quot;there was some threads in the
past&quot;
