Find 3.14.1 in updates-testing, where it must go first. Fedora users can
speed up the release by giving karma points on Test Updates. Without such
points, package maintainers need to wait at least a week before they can
mark updates as "stable".

The reason that 3.14.0 has been "stuck" in updates-testing is that during
release preparation of F25, it has been forgotten. Nobody has checked for
missing updates that would result in a downgrade when coming from F24 or
older.
