Because a lot of GNOME works directly with (and depends on) the core OS., and we want a stable system. And really because we should rather invest effort in making sure that upgrades between major releases for the core OS and default desktop packages are nearly bulletproof, and in addition try to maintain a parallel-installable stable set of library packages for a set period of time. This would make it so that things outside the core are less likely to break due to core upgrades. I'm thinking concretely here of say a package like clutter which has switched 0.6 -> 0.8 -> 1.0 in the same "clutter" package is a bad idea once the core desktop depends on it, we'll need to parallel install. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
