Mmm, requiring a lot of action for a lot of packages has not to be discussed also? This is also a problem, not only getting rid of the bug themselves, because people may disagree very easily. I don't think submitting a lot of bugs or submitting a bug affecting a lot of packages are so different things. I thought we were trying to "Discuss first, submit bugs later". This should be valid for your bug also. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: latin1 iQCVAgUBNRJxcSqK7IlOjMLFAQGLSgP/UF2s2Oq9WBvwAne/xkY42V4si7zn48IA cL+kMhdA4tTzDHClMb7j0XqNOrJ2XNE6SuegHajJsxlcCN/Io6t8nPmTFauQ+3TG xV2JYiicRDjNrDBRX/3pflRipltbVmOnQRvKU+yaujfwcMEZy+xG2Vq6eWVFhhw8 MyCcobg93Xk= =Kgfq -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
