It would be nicer to let us know what kind of bug you ran into so that we do not have to put a random git snapshot in an official repository.
I created the bug report https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=332218 when I discovered during my analysis that it's the same problem as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=283300 The latter is the one which is mentioned in commit d9ccb1df62bb8ecfc1f6a6dc6b4574d2e55fa743 of the prison repo.
I don't know the policy regarding what version openSuse uses to deliver, but if it's just the version with the latest tag (here v1.0) then this is in that case probably not so good.
If upstream doesn't release any new versions and by looking at the repo it seems quite abandoned as well (latest commit 17 August 2012). I am sure that you can appreciate that the policy for openSUSE is to deliver tested tarballs with the official versions and not to have random git snapshots that could cause crashes, etc.
ok, I already also contacted the original author to release a new version.
