Even if it was maintained by someone who knew what they were doing, it's very unlikely anyone would test all the packages on all suse versions and archs.
KUA is using a distinct "if it builds, ship it!" policy. Noone reported any problems until now, so I don't think it would have made a difference if someone else maintained it.
Even though it's in the community repos list, it's still an unsupported repo, and some minor risks should be accepted.
It's not about testing but simply not having it broken for weeks. A repo which is basically unmaintained should not be offered on the community repos list.
And how are you supposed to know it's broken without testing it and noone reporting there's a problem?
In this specific case just looking at https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor?project=KDE%3AUpdatedApps The last successful build of digikam was on 2011-07-22. Let's face it, KUA is unmaintained...
The way it works is that when some new app appears in KDF it's linked to KUA - if it builds it builds - if it fails it shouldn't hurt anyone. You can't expect everything to build on old 11.3. E.g. digiKam 2.x failing to build on 11.3 is not really a problem. In fact it's expected. This does not serve as a hint to anyone that digiKam 1.9 binaries are broken on 11.3. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kde+help@opensuse.org
