Usually they stop when, or soon after, they are made part of an official |
| 12 |
kde.org package. I can't recall any app that does this right now. Anyway, for |
| 13 |
the very few that do, we can include extra releases with made-up version |
| 14 |
numbers (or dates) that sort of make sense. These cases are so rare that this |
| 15 |
doesn't fall into the 'confusing users' category IMHO. |
