Because it's latest version of GNOME 2.x. You should ask GNOME folks
why they stopped update the 2.x version.

All of your reports in last a few days are already in the PR in a few
weeks ago with patch available. Before you ask me why I do not commit
it? Because I have GNOME 3 installed and I can't test GNOME 2 until I
uninstall GNOME 3 and test GNOME 2 to allow me to touch a lot of PRs.
