Well, it's slightly out of my point.

openSUSE 42.2 takes some M17N packages from SLE12-SP2, yes.  It's
fine, and it would help decreasing the maintenance cost for Leap.
These are listed as SUSE:SLE-12-SP2:GA in that meta list in the
previous mail.

OTOH, the packages that are listed as openSUSE:Leap:42.1 (and
openSUSE:Leap:42.1:Update) are the already forked packages, and they
do *not* follow SLE12-SP2 development at all.  They'll stick with the
old 42.1 version if you don't do any action now!  They are the ones I
want people reviewing.

Many of such packages have already newer versions or fixes on TW, and
they can be put to Leap-42.2 as well.  Then we need the manual
submissions from TW for them.

Or, if some packages that are listed as 42.1 and should be replaced
with SLE12-SP2 version back, we have to do it properly, too (at first
submitting SP2 package, then update the meta list).

Hope that clarifies enough.


thanks,

Takashi
