You completly fail to get my point. It's not about MY instability |
| 14 |
problems because I have none, just because I don't use kde myself. BUT: |
| 15 |
As a dev I might have to deal with lots of problems and bug reports |
| 16 |
which result from people using a beta-version of kdelibs 3.3 (I already |
| 17 |
pointed out one example of this in my original post) because lots of |
| 18 |
other (non-kde-core) packages link to it. |
