No, we do what is appropriate for the package. As a guideline, thirty
days is a reasonable duration for ~arch for non-core packages. For very
small changes (for example a simple ten line patch), thirty days may be
too long. For core packages, or complex packages with a lot of
dependencies, thirty days is often not long enough to find all the
associated issues. For security related issues, we either backport or
ignore the thirty days depending upon which seems more appropriate.
