Backports has 4.0.3 because there's no sense to jump on every version which
still needs to be tested to be exposed to stable users. And 3.5, yeah, it sucks
but 3.6 was't ready by the time wheezy was frozen...

Besides that, I uploaded dthe 4.0.x backport quickly after 4.0.x was in
unstable. (factually breaking the rules, but LO has a exception for important
updates. 3.5-Y>4.0 is so). Otherwise the policy is "take from testing".
4.1 will follow when it's tested in unstable...

Should I tell you what hinders in from entering testing now?

$ grep-excuses libreoffice

    Too young, only 1 of 10 days old
[ missing builds on armel, armhd, kfreebsd-i386, kfreebsd-amd64 ]
[ RC bug which is fixed ]
    Not considered
    Depends: libreoffice kde-runtime (not considered)
    Depends: libreoffice liborcus (not considered)
    Depends: libreoffice mdds (not considered)
    Depends: libreoffice python3-defaults (not considered)

Thus it's blocked by
 a) being too young
 b) by the KDE people adding a stricter depends and that one's blocked due to
    a bug
 c) new dependencies LO 4.1 has.
 d) python3-defaults because python3.3-uno was just a workaround and now
    it's back to sane packaging, but with the caveat that it needs the
    new default pyton (python 3.3 IS needed, even upstream)

Please tell me how I should have speeded this up? There's no way out of the
waiting time and no, I am not going to use internal libraries.

Regards,
 
Rene
