I'm wondering why certain popular packages, such as Banshee and Bash, take so long to be updated in the stable repos. Banshee 1.8.1 was released almost a month ago, and Bash 4.2 over a week ago (now in testing). It seems like some packages are updated instantly, but others, seemingly randomly, are never updated. Are there reasons for this?

bash-4.2 was in [testing] before the release announcement was even made... but it has known issues that are being fixed upstream. I will not release to [core] before then.
In conclusion, the developer knows best!

It's because if a certain popular package gets updated and then the users find out that it's broken, they will hurt cute furry animals e.g. penguins.
