The QA team can at least install from there and see if it starts. And what gives? Any package above a certain size or certain complexity is filled with known and unknown bugs. It's only a matter of how one defines a testsuite to expose such bugs. > +1 -- and from what I've heard it looks to me that the new QA stuff > might make it quite easy to just push some kind of button to say "there > is a problem, please don't push" That's the negation of testing - As in mathematics, one counter proof suffices to bring a proof down. Anybody being intimate with a SW probably is able to provide a case to expose a bug - So, what kind of additional quality would "testing" provide? I don't see any.
