If you have been *testing* it for 2-3 weeks surely you have no problem
to find two
testers to confirm the small fix?

I know you never run kde from updates-testing yourself, so I understand why you
think nobody would want to test it. But the reality is that even if
you don't want to
test your work yourself, there are people who can verify the fix so
that the update
can go out sooner if need be.
