When Kaffeine do another (beta) release it should appear in the KDE:Bacports repo.
Don't think anybody has time or will to cherrypick patches or update from vcs at random times.
Who's talking about "vcs"?
Christoph mentioned svn.
And I am not asking about *backporting* to some earlier version of openSUSE but I am talking about the very latest, just released, openSUSE 11.2. vcs is any Version Control System, including svn. It is a generic term for cvs/svn/git/bzr/hg/anything.
Grabbing patches from future (e.g. unreleased svn) upstream code is the definition of backporting. So yes you are asking about backporting. What we have been trying to tell you repeatedly is that nobody is going to do a new build of kaffeine just for you for this one fix, wait till kaffeine upstream releases a new version (1.0pre3 or something) officially and we will package that release then, probably in KDE4:Backports or similar. As per the kaffeine website http://kaffeine.kde.org/ 1.0pre2 is the latest release and that is the version that is packaged in openSUSE. That is all the packages are obligated to do. Otherwise if this one fix is important to you, instead of always asking others to do the work, just copy the kaffeine package on the OBS (into your home repo or something) and add the necessary patch. While I don't want to sound negative or patronizing, it's not terribly hard considering the effort going into complaining atm.
