Not "some env". It fails in BOTH reproducible builds and my
autobuilders. Those are INDEPENDENT. There is OBJECTIVELY a problem
behind this.

It is not a job of a bug reporter to provide an explanation.
I'm providing a virtual machine for you to test, and you still
refuse the offer. I could understand your unwillingness to work
on something which you don't see as RC, but that's not a good
reason to *close* a report.

You could still accept the offer to access one of my autobuilders.
You can also forward the bug upstream and tag it as "help".

Because it's a bug. This is a matter of principles. We don't close
bugs just because we are not motivated enough to fix them, we close them
when they are fixed.

I'm not actually asking you to do anything, since you already
downgraded the bug and I'm not disputing the severity.

Let's clarify one thing: Are you closing this report because you
believe it is not a bug, or just because you are unwilling to work on
it?

In the first case, we should reassign to the tech-ctte, since I
clearly disagree. In the second case it is absolutely not proper to
close a bug if we agree it's a bug.

Thanks.
