I was mostly upset because of the appearance of inaction by the arch
teams. In my specific case, it wasn't the arm guys I was talking about [1].
arm was stable within the first month of adding to the bug.

I was very concerned because of how long this bug sat in the stable
queue with no action being taken, especially since other important
packages depended on it.
