It is about ranting instead of contributing.

Do you actually think I am *NOT* aware of the fact that the
TeX Live versions in Debian (Ubuntu) are outdated?

But how many of the 124 people on this bug report, or for the record,
on *all* the bug reports concerning TeX, have *contributed*?

There are simply a few options:
- do it yourself if you are in great need
- pay someone to do it for you
- wait until someone does it for you

Enjoy.
