I _guess_ that makes a weird kind of sense for upstream if the users are really so stupid[*]. But surely Debian users can be relied on to read /usr/share/bug/systemd/presubj before reporting bugs against the wrong package. dmesg is not the right place for this kind of warning, when nothing worse happened than the user choosing a supported configuration at installation time. Imagine if all packages put such defensive warnings about bugs, not necessarily cross-distro, that they have nothing to do with there. :) Thanks for the clarification.
