Hi, "Robert R. Russell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > 1) How long do you recommend using a package before filing a > stabilization request?
Usually 30 days in ~arch and no bugs open. Though this can differ, for example for "big" software as Gnome, KDE or Mozilla products. > 2) Should I file stabilization requests on software that works > mostly as in everything that I use it for normally but I can force it > to fail if I feed it some really strange input or contrive a specific > set of options that will cause invalid or incorrect output. Try to sort it out with upstream (original package author). Depends on the problem, if an older stable version shows the same behavior it should be no show-stopper.
