Oh noes, the list isn't really getting shorter ...

It's Fedora's old release management flaw ;)

As usual at these times of the release cycle, Fedora 36 is in deep
freeze, i.e. package updates are not getting pushed, which causes
gradually causing them to pile up and "testers" wasting time on testing
outdated stuff.

That said, I am waiting for some packages to getting pushed for almost 4
weeks and me gradually getting angry at everybody being involved!

Did you send this just for TROLZ or did you want to contribute
something productive?
This is absolutely no troll, but a serious complaint about a long withstanding issue from FESCO, release-eng or whoever might be involved has ever addressed.


If it was the latter, I couldn't find it in your message. Sorry.
It's actually quite simple: There are dozens if not hundreds of unpushed updates pending due to the release freeze, which will be released at the very moment the freeze will be lifted.

The consequences are:
- You guys are testing outdated stuff
- After fedora goes gold, all these packages will be updated.
