Sometimes do you find packages in the OBS that are outdated. You never know why, perhaps the packager doesn't knows about the new upstream version and perhaps he knows but is just busy. Up to now when I found such a case I reported it like an "Enhancement" bug in bugzilla. But some packagers think bugzilla isn't the correct place for such a thing.
If the packager doesn't knows about the new version he can leave the package outdated for a long time. So would be good that, at some time, if an user finds the problem he reports it. But, how should be reported? There is any feature planned in the OBS to help with this? What other distros do?
A very good point.
Personally, I think Bugzilla is the best place to report it. It also makes it much easier to track the status.
I think another approach would make sense: users could report it on software.opensuse.org since that's where they look for software. Then we just need a way to mail the relevant packagers about this "new upstream" report.
