4 True, we'd also have a new stable KDE rather sooner than later. It's only
5 limited fun if upstream considers your stable version dead. :|

7 4.6.0 looked OK for a .0 release, some regressions compared to 4.5.5
8 4.6.1 introduced a lot of regressions compared to _4.6.0_!
9
10 One possible cause for this might be that upstream was (and still is) in the
11 middle of the svn -> git migration, and that the 4.6.1 tarballs were pieced
12 together "by hand" from different repositories... (*)

14 Anyway. 4.6.2 will be tagged on thursday, and we hope this is going to be a
15 worthy stable candidate.
