Thanks for checking. However, the taging is by far not done manually but
rather trusts the information stored in UDD[1]. There might be two reasons
for the fact that the "Newer upstream" is not detected:
1. Recently the propagation of DEHS information to UDD was broken
2. The watch file might be wrong and does not detect the new version
It would be a good idea if the maintainer of qgis would check the watch
file to exclude 2. - there are people just working on 1. as far as I
know. On the other hand I can confirm that this tagging does not at all
influence the Wheezy release because the version which will go to Wheezy
is frozen anyway and the main important point is that it is mentioned in
the tasks file at all to make it into the metapackages.
Any other comments?
Kind regards
Andreas.
