KDE team, please review this thread.
His point is: The packages he fixed did not have any patch tagging, therefore he shouldn't be forced to add them.
And that's what we normally do - and I haven't seen any other policy from the KDE team that you want to enforce patch tagging going forward,
This was discussed privately. There are more important issues with these two SR, one of these being that they break the backward compatibility with giflib4 (the others being poor coding style and an ifdef that doesn't exist in giflib <= 4.1.6) About the patch tagging, it's never too late to begin doing things properly. The KDE packages have countless patches that were pushed years ago, were never upstreamed and are potentially pointless nowadays. Christophe
