how do we actually request fresh upstream stuff for already existing projects and packagtes in newer leaps? do maintainers of packages look into their sources for their maintained packages and pull in new stuff regularly? tia.
Nothing and nobody stops you from submitting your request with changes.
No, but its much nicer if you speak to the maintainer first, although they will have to review it at some point. But to answer the question more generally, for most packages its simply up to the maintainers discretion,, for SLE packages there are further rules that maintainers may also choose to apply such as not updating packages if they break there config or compatibility Leap is meant to be stable after all. -- Simon Lees (Simotek) http://simotek.net Emergency Update Team keybase.io/simotek SUSE Linux Adelaide Australia, UTC+10:30 GPG Fingerprint: 5B87 DB9D 88DC F606 E489 CEC5 0922 C246 02F0 014B
