Well I have already agreed of using old working copy and not checking
diffs painstakingly. Between your commit in devel also ignored source
import and build. You had updated to new version and didn't bothered
to update the source and support your statement with a false argument
that "if it had a maintainer". Package should not be left it that
state.
You are mistaken. I am completely innocent here.
It was not me who did the version upgrade. Check your facts, please.
The only thing I did was to commit a spec file fix in devel for an
unowned directory and leave it to the old or new package maintainer to
decide whether and when to rebuild in Rawhide. Typically, maintainers
[even some who have been non-responsive for a few weeks] take the
chance and apply other updates [such as new version upgrades - hint;) ].
And even if I had noticed the missing tarball upload, it would not have
been my obligation to fix it. Rather I would have tried to find out the
reason for it.
