> Well if one of you could become sort of independent...
Here is what I do not understand: You (Savvas Radevic) created a 2.2.5 package for glabels and I gratefully pulled it from your experimental ppa back in May 2009. Why was this not placed in the backports release for Jaunty?
What does " Declined for Jaunty by Chris Coulson" mean? Does it mean what that despite the developer fixing the defect and a volunteer packaging it for release, a Ubuntu team member can arbitrarily refuse to release it to the repositories?
It is a disservice to the developer and the Ubuntu users to release a known critically defective old version of an application in the repository and not replace it with the working version released from the developer.
