How about packages in extras-devel, which need features from CSSU?
I think I have some SDL-games (maybe about sdl-mixer) hanging on extras-devel, because they don't work correctly without CSSU.

This is a good question there are also applications that conflict with CSSU.
I don't see this as a reason to hold these packages in devel, they need to be tested.
I would guess these packages should be packaged in some standardised way to check for CSSU installation. However, I currently have no idea of the correct way to do this.

I think we need guidelines. Well thought of. There are console only program packages compiled in CSSU environments that have broken enter key in Nokia's 1.3.1 latest official release. Are they testing good? On CSSU devices, yeah, on non-CSSU, red-flags (using ctrl-m for enter is enough for red-flag i hope?). Which version is the truth testers should follow/grade?

Personally I would treat this as a thumbs down and comment on the bug. IMO the package should be adapted to suit PR1.3.1 and CSSU or made to conflict/depend on them.
This is why we have package testing, not everyone will have the same setup.
The future of Maemo is CSSU so IMO packages need to keep up to date and support it.

It's now time for the community (yes, you), to get back to using maemo.org to it's full potential.
Testers:-
There are a large quantity of packages that need testing CORRECTLY and voting on.
Please if you can, start testing and QA'ing packages, filing bug reports on bugzilla, bumping threads on TMO regarding any versions stuck in devel/testing, contacting maintainers for support etc.
Developers:-
If you have a package that has been hanging in devel or testing, why?? Get it promoted, if you feel is it stable enough for all the community to enjoy. Extras-devel is no longer the place to be pushing long term "stable" updates.
Let's get our repositories working how they should be again.
Also if any developers feel like supplying fixes or becoming a maintainer of a package, feel free to request that on the package interface.
