Bug#495645: udev: typo in help string

2008-11-13 Thread A. Costa
Apologies in advance to M. D'Itri, who just wants to get back to his
good work maintaining the most essential udev et al.  Carry on, 
please ignore this cross reference post.

Dear Users, this little bug takes me back to this little bug:


http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=397384archived=Falsembox=no

...which is burdened by a thorough but unpopular critique of some
maintainers Sea Captain (e.g. my ship, my law) peremptory style of
administration, which in certain rare instances seems to be the de facto
law for Debian, as opposed to the more idealistic official rules.

Despite which, or perhaps even because of which, Debian floats
majestically onward, but passenger beware...

 Thank you for wasting my time with a trivial bug which I will need to
 track. Send this kind of things upstream next time.

Debian as a distribution is the link between users and upstream.
If users can't locate upstream's tracker (or find out whether it's a
bug in upstream or just in the Debian package) we should help them
either in pointing them to upstream's place or in forwarding their
request.  But insulting a bug reporter who cares about the software
we ship is the wrong way, IMHO.

Wasting my time makes Debian ship worse software.
