So we should probably clarify when, if ever, unstable packages should be in KDE:Extra. If it is never, then the above packages should probably be removed. If exceptions are allowed for which there is no working stable version but that are still actively developed, then we should probably include kphotoalbum in KDE:Extra.
Todd, This was already clarified in the past when the KDE repositories where changed with regards to naming, etc. I am sure that this could be found in the meeting logs of the KDE team on the opensuse website. KDE:Extra is primarily intended to have only packages with a released version/tarball. KDE:Unstable:Playground is the repo that would hold git/svn snapshots, alpha's, beta's, etc. As that K:U:P is not really suited for the normal user, the agreement was made that KDE:Extra could have exceptions where a snapshot, alpha or beta would be allowed. However this was and will always be a case by case basis. If you believe that a certain package should be part of this exception, then you can put the question up on the IRC channel #opensuse-kde or on this mailinglist. In the past the main unofficial approver for these exceptions was Martin Schlander (cb400f) :-) Raymond -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
