The ones to test it would/should be the distri packagers IMHO :)

Problem here is, we do not have much feedback by them, as they, unless 
following closely Krita development, might not know about the upcoming Krita 3 
release and thus also have not yet started packaging or giving things some 
more testing.
At least I only saw the email by Cyrille to	kde-distro-packagers at kde.org for 
Krita 3.0 Beta in April, but nothing else. Is there another list?

Just emailed to release-team & kde-distro-packagers mailinglists to get an 
idea where self-release-managed apps like Krita should do mass announcement of 
upcoming releases to packagers, so we (Krita, Calligra, Kexi & Co) do know 
where to ping them once their is something new to distribute.

Let's wait for the packagers' feedback. And say "No" to premature package 
optimizations ;) 

Cheers
Friedrich
