Probably because Mart (leio) does a really good job of combing through the ChangeLogs and making sure that there aren't any regressions. For instance, with gtk+-2.18, there are major changes which break rendering in apps[1], so it won't be brazenly added to tree (likely will get a p.mask like you say). However, glib-2.22 has no such changes, and will be the first thing to get added to tree as ~arch part of GNOME 2.28. 1. Client-Side windows (csw) /will/ break apps; there has been extensive testing upstream, but breakage is inevitable. -- ~Nirbheek Chauhan Gentoo GNOME+Mozilla Team
