Backporting is quite a time consuming job. Having an app A backported will rise a question why B or C can't be backported. However, Ana has already replied that she is considering including yakauke in backports. > Why do you think it is without support? Of course there is no official > support of debian, but Ana kindly responds to that mailinglist. I did not mean such support. Your request is actually a perfectly valid support request (old software does not work with KDE4, you want a newer version) also. Frankly, you give a pretty good reason as KDE3 version is completely unusable. > Of course, but I have the feeling that these backports are meant to help > testing users to use KDE4 right now before Lenny is released.

These are Lenny backports (so they are more "future stable" backports than testing backports). You can be pretty sure that it will take a while until KDE 4 migrates to testing after it enters unstable. But backports will stay Lenny not Squeeze ones during that period. -- Modestas Vainius <modestas@vainius.eu>
