I'm sure a lot of it can be attributed to responsibility dilution, not
spending enough time on the queues, or people shying away from
reviewing LibO diffs indeed.
However, we have a similar case right now: There is a new LibO
upstream release sitting in the xenial-proposed queue. I reviewed it,
but didn't accept it because the new version didn't get uploaded to
yakkety.
It appears to me that the same happened for wily: The wily SRU was
uploaded on Oct 28, but the xenial package only on Nov 11. So back
then the SRU wasn't accepted because of "devel first", and then it
probably feel into the mental category of "this upload has been
sitting here for several weeks, there must be something bad with it".
So, a lot of fallacies all around :-/, but maybe this helps to
understand what's going on.
