Upstream maintainer and people closely following development think of a module as a list of new features and current bugs, shrinking and growing by time. If Adam thinks it's fine to include a prerelease of xorg in Fedora, then, well, it's fine. Just because we called it cairo 1.6.0 didn't make it any better than 1.5.20. In fact it was worse. We had to release 1.6.2 the day after to fix a bad bug introduced in 1.6.0, and yes, had to release 1.6.4 on the same day, to fix a really bad bug introduced in 1.6.2. 1.5.20 on the other hand, was in release-candidate state for a week with no major issues reported... behdad -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
