There's absolutely no reason not to provide the recent version of Claws
right now.

[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ cat /mnt/moonstudio/etc/issue
Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch) \n \l

[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ ls /mnt/moonstudio/usr/src/claws/*deb
/mnt/moonstudio/usr/src/claws/claws_3.12.0-37-g8d1abd-1_amd64.deb
/mnt/moonstudio/usr/src/claws/claws-mail-git_3.12.0-37-g8d1abd-1_amd64.deb

I've got only official repositories enabled and I only build Claws, IOW
all dependencies are provided by the repositories.

The only reason is that you try to keep in sync with Debian's Claws
package, respl. packages. Consider to keep in sync with upstream
whenever it's possible.

The Wily version I build is as stable as my Arch Claws build, there are
no issues with running a recent version of Claws.
