Thanks for your warm words. Fact 1: hard links are a normal part of the UNIX world, not handling them can be considered a bug (aka being broken). If it's an important bug is another issue. Fact 2: The good %fdupes thingy does is making it possible to have a 700MB ISO Fact 3: Many packages are broken in installing massive overlap of files Fact 4: Yes, running fdupes in hardlink mode without thinking twice might not not be the best idea. But as a matter of fact, I consider every tool not good or bad per se. It always depends on the use of the tools. Fact 5: Your communication style is broken, you should check the facts before calling other people's ideas broken.
