[...] As you know Tumbleweed as our rolling release is supposed to be stable.
It needs quite some effort to follow systemd version jumps and stay stable.
I'd not call Tumbleweed 'stable' but rather e.g. 'usable for the target audience'. 'stable' is what we have, well, stable releases for. Tumbleweed must be able to follow upstream developments reasonably quick, _especially_ core packages like systemd. Otherwise we'd miss the purpose. The whole idea of the Factory/Tumbleweed merger was to also get the core rolling. By doing that we want to motivate contributors to participate in the core components. We will not achieve that by keeping the SLE12 versions of packages with a heap of patches on top. Preventing bad breakages in core components to hit the published repo is in fact what new development process with openQA and staging projects was made for. So please go ahead and submit the new systemd. The staging process will have to prove itself on packages like that. If a badly broken systemd manages to pass through we have to analyze why and improve the process. cu Ludwig -- (o_ Ludwig Nussel //\ V_/_ http://www.suse.de/ SUSE LINUX GmbH, GF: Jeff Hawn, Jennifer Guild, Felix Imendörffer, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5; 90409 Nürnberg; Germany -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
