I understand it might have been late, but, um... Vitriol is on topic, and
potty mouths are expected, but I think you're being a bit excessive.
Not that luke-hate is surprising, but it's probably not on-topic.
At the least, you could have responded with how you've never had a package
that needed another package to run, or that when you do you just *know* it
so you don't need a wussy tool to tell you that, or that you're so
super-magical that when you have a problem on your computer, you immediately
know what's wrong ("RXVT can't find X11/Intrinsic.h? I must not have
installed the X11 SDK! Of course!").
Just calling me a dickhead for expecting my "I paid extra so it would just
work" computer to just work, even when doing things that not everyone does,
is a bit excessive.
