Comment 2 for bug 419733

This issue is low; it will is not scheduled to be fix. It will be fixed opportunistically.

There is a fundemental problem that make a fix for this bug ellusive. Who needs release files?

User want packages from the OS's repo, developers was source code. Launchpad handled the "get this software" problem baddly because it fails to understand the kinds of users who visit the project and need software. Most users who see the file for downloads may use it, but they really want to get the package or code from some place that launchpad has hidden from them I suspect this feature is best suited to packagers who want the tarball, or are willing to accept a pre-build package...in which case I think they want all releases :/
