(apologies for lack of message threading - I just subscribed to be able to chip into the conversation) In this particular case, I did the analysis and had patches posted by June 27th since nothing seemed to be happening and this bug was a blocker for me: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=274032 This is referenced by the following bug in the RedHat bugzilla the same day: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=160278 Upon request, I put together RPMs (src, i386 and x86_64) a couple of weeks later (July 18th) since many others have been running into this bug and are waiting for a resolution. The issue in this particular case isn't a lack of analysis or a lack of patches, or even a lack of pulling them together to create new SRPMs which could be checked, tested and released. The issue is: why has it been almost 2.5 months since analysis & patches have been made available but no updated official packages have been made? (to be fair, the recently updated evolution and evolution-data-server packages do include the required patches; however, they're insufficient to solve this bug without updated gnome-pilot and pilot-link packages) //Mark
