And that is why the .32 kernel is not in [core] yet. As I understand
it, the kernel packaging process shouldn't take long, but sometimes
bugs pop in and they don't always have a solution quick enough. In
this case, .31.8 was released by kernel.org before .32 was stable in
Arch. But it's just an exception, not the rule. I've seen kernels
being released in [core] fast enough.
