Actually, in Fedora, we track upstream. RHEL is downstream of Fedora,
so it's usually not my problem. Moreover, they often cherrypick fixes
from Fedora rather than the other way around.

This is what's broken here in openSUSE. Despite having this rolling
model for Tumbleweed and Factory, stuff in the base gets updated
*less* often than before. And now SLE is used as an excuse when it
shouldn't be.
