I also agree on that, there is no reason.
Software need not be updated all the time. Some software just
works.
Some maybe cannot be compiled due to some changes in compiler, then
such bug shall be reported.
It would be good that software is included in any distributions, that
is choice of distributions, but also could be promoted by anybody who
supports free software and GNU project.
